San Andrés Tuxtla, Veracruz
100% Mexican tobacco, grown in our volcanic soil of San Andrés Tuxtla.
Lo más puro de México
The story of Tabacos Carrión is an emblem of tradition and excellence in the tobacco trade. Since its founding in 1929, this family company has grown, tended and exported fine tobacco leaf from San Andrés Tuxtla, Veracruz, a region prized for a climate and volcanic soil made for cultivation. Specialising in the Negro de San Andrés and Sumatra varieties, it has supplied its tobacco to the most prestigious brands in the world.
The family chose to extend its legacy with a premium cigar line of its own: Carrion Cigars. Decades of growing experience meet an uncompromising commitment to craftsmanship. Every cigar is made only with 100% Mexican tobacco, with care at each step, from cultivation and fermentation to aging and rolling, so that each one carries the pride and passion of the Carrión family.
With Carrion Cigars we set out to raise the standing of Mexican tobacco around the world. Our cigars stand for the luxury and authenticity of Mexico, and show that a premium product, made with dedication and Mexican tradition, can excel on the international stage, carrying the name of San Andrés Tuxtla to new heights.
Intense and complex, for those who seek tobacco with character. All three leaves are Negro de San Andrés: a dark, oily wrapper with barely visible veins, perfectly aged.
Dark cocoa, espresso and leather at first; damp earth and toasted nuts follow, with black pepper. It closes with smoked wood, bitter chocolate and a mineral touch of the San Andrés terroir.
Smoky whisky, aged rum or a double espresso.
Elegance and balance. The light-brown, silky Sumatra wrapper envelops a Negro de San Andrés filler.
Fresh wood, nutmeg and vanilla at first; creamy cocoa, dried fruit and a floral note in the middle. It finishes with caramel, cedar and a light bitterness of dark chocolate.
Aged cognac, a fruity red wine or a light coffee.
95th anniversary commemorative edition. Tobacco from the first fields the founder planted, dressed in a Bolero wrapper: a double wrapper of Negro de San Andrés and Sumatra.
Brandy sweetness, soft leather and white pepper at first; cocoa, aged wood, almond and cinnamon in the middle. A long finish of dark caramel and cedar.
Aged rum, tawny port, sweet sherry or a full-bodied coffee.
The essence of Mexican tobacco in a shorter smoke. The natural sweetness of Negro de San Andrés Claro, the structure of a Habano binder and a silky Sumatra wrapper.
Cedar, nuts and a citrus touch at first; cocoa, toasted coffee and white pepper follow. An earthy, woody finish with bitter chocolate and a light sweetness.
Aged rum, a vanilla-noted malt whisky or a café con leche.
We plant in the volcanic soil of the San Andrés valley, the same land the family has worked since 1929.
The leaf ferments slowly until it develops the colour and aroma of San Andrés tobacco.
In our warehouse the tobacco rests for as long as it needs to soften the leaf and round out its flavour.
Every cigar is rolled by hand and dressed with the Carrion band.
95th anniversary commemorative edition

Its Negro de San Andrés Claro filler receives a special brandy preparation that lends a subtle sweetness, with notes of leather, almond, cinnamon and cedar.
