ARTICLE 3: TRACEABILITY AND GUARANTEE

We strive every day to select and offer you the best quality cigars possible. The cigars we offer are from our own production and we can guarantee their origin.

By rigorously controlling the origin of our products, we can offer you the certainty that the cigars you buy are 100% original and not counterfeit, or grey market (lower quality cigars).

Tres Hermanos cigars can be sold individually, in boxes of 5, 10 and 25. Each cigar is individually wrapped in cellophane, which ensures that it does not dry out and lose its aromas. The cape sheet will thus be protected from production to the consumer. You will have the assurance that your cigar has not been handled by several people, which is often the case for unwrapped cigars.

Our first objective is the rigorous selection of the raw materials we buy. Therefore, we only work with producers who are under contract with Tres Hermanos. This guarantees and certifies the seriousness and the traceability of the cigars that you buy from us.

Each box is checked by our specialists before each order validation. The boxes are hermetically packed to allow the cigars to keep their optimal humidity during the transport of the product.

ARTICLE 4: PRICES
