Leite & Alves Cigars

The cigars from Leite & Alves are imported by our colleague Sebastian Gollas from Berlin. In addition to his retail activities, he also works as a cigar importer and distributor. Always in search of exciting products from small and fine tabacaleras, he came across Renato Madeiro, the owner of the brand, during a trip through Brazil in December 2021. His factory in Cachoeira currently produces some of the trendiest cigars from Brazil. Renato is known there as Brincalho, a crazy bird of paradise who loves to experiment with tobaccos.

In addition to the typical Mata Fina and Arapiraca blends, he also likes to blend with other tobaccos that are not usually used there. This makes his cigars special, and they should definitely be tried at least once. In general, the cigars from Leite & Alves have a slightly milder and creamier taste compared to the "normal" Brazilian cigars made with Mata Fina or Arapiraca, among others.
