Remedios Cigars: Compare Prices from 18 Retailers

Quick answer: Remedios (Remedios de Santa Clara) is a Nicaraguan value cigar line created by John Oliva and produced at Nicaraguan American Tobaccos in Esteli. The line offers Connecticut Natural and Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrappers in value-priced packs of 20. Compare current Remedios prices across our retailers above.

Remedios is positioned as an everyday Nicaraguan cigar with notes of cocoa, leather, nuts, and cedar. Most sticks sit in the $2 to $4 per stick tier in bundles.

The story behind Remedios

Remedios de Santa Clara was created by Cigar Master John Oliva in the wake of a warehouse fire that destroyed an entire Connecticut Valley tobacco supplier's inventory. With pressure on Connecticut wrapper supply, Oliva developed Remedios as a value line that could deliver the Connecticut character at an accessible price.

The cigars are produced at Nicaraguan American Tobaccos S.A. in Esteli, Nicaragua, a large factory partly owned by JR Cigar.

The lines

• Remedios de Santa Clara Natural. Smooth golden Connecticut Shade wrapper. Mild to medium body with cream, cedar, and almond notes.
• Remedios de Santa Clara Maduro. Dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. Medium to full body with cocoa, leather, dark fruit, and a sweet finish.

What to expect

Remedios is built for value and consistency. The blend uses aged tobaccos from multiple Nicaraguan and other regions. Both styles are offered in 20-count packs that drop the per-stick price below most premium cigars.

This is the right pick for an everyday smoke or for stocking the office humidor. Not a contemplative cigar, but well-made for the price.
