La Chaveta: Premium Cigars from Nicaragua
We are delighted to present to you in late summer 2025 a private label that fulfills a small dream of ours. La Chaveta Cigars are handmade Premium Longfillers from Nicaragua into which we have poured a lot of thought and heart.
From Online Trade to Cigar Brand
Soon it will be 30 years that we have been active with the Cigarworld Online Shop. Our goal has always been to carry everything available on the German market in our shop. We also offer private labels, such as our popular “house brands” La Domaine de Lavalette from the Dominican Republic and Rosa Nicaragua from Nicaragua. These bundle cigars offer great value for money and are suitable for any occasion, though they cannot match the flavor complexity of a longfiller.
Home in Nicaragua: Cigars from La Chaveta
With La Chaveta Cigars from Nicaragua we now enter the ranks of high-quality premium products. For a long time, we pursued the idea of having a private label rolled in this Central American country. For various reasons, our previous efforts had not been successful.
The change came thanks to a friend of our company: Ralf Westerwick, like us from North Rhine-Westphalia, runs the Tabacalera Casa de Alegria in Estelí. We have been closely connected to him for over two decades, both professionally and personally. When Ralf told us about expanded production capacity at his factory, the decision was clear. From the start we knew: a jumbo operation was out of the question; we wanted a small tabacalera that would devote itself to the brand with the same dedication as we do. Ralf proved to be – as we never doubted – the ideal partner.
What Defines the La Chaveta Brand?
As we wished, La Chaveta cigars are rolled a bit firmer – for optimal draw resistance and particularly stable ash. Two pigtails, one on the head and one on the foot, make the cigars unmistakable. Quality and taste are not everything, the price must also be right. That is why we are all the more pleased to be able to offer you these high-quality cigars at a fair price well under 10 euros through direct cooperation with the factory.
Meaning of “Chaveta”
How did we come up with the name? “La Chaveta” refers to the round knife used to cut the wrapper leaf. It is widely used in cigar production and is therefore a central symbol of tobacco culture. Its distinctive name should quickly become synonymous with top quality from Nicaragua for aficionados.
La Chaveta at a Glance: Cigars, Samplers, Cutter
All La Chaveta Cigars are available in elegant wooden boxes, as well as in practical freshpacks and bundles. The series include different cigar formats – so every aficionado will find the right shape for their taste. La Chaveta Cigars are available exclusively here in our online shop.
La Chaveta White
The first series of the new brand bears the name La Chaveta White. It was intended to be mild and aromatic – and that is exactly what it has become. At the same time, it unfolds a fascinating depth, thanks to its special filler made exclusively of Nicaraguan tobaccos from Estelí, Jalapa, and Condega. This is cigar blending from Nicaragua at the highest international level.
- La Chaveta White Perla – the small, refined option for shorter moments of enjoyment.
- La Chaveta White Robusto – the popular format with a balanced smoking experience.
- La Chaveta White Toro – stronger and fuller-bodied, ideal for longer enjoyment.
La Chaveta Sampler
La Chaveta Samplers come in handy freshpacks and bundles that protect the cigars and are visually appealing. Instead of identical formats, they offer different sizes and in some cases a clear price advantage, inviting you to discover the brand from Nicaragua.
The first sampler, the La Chaveta White Freshpack, contains six hand-rolled premium cigars (Toro, Robusto, Perla). They are creamy, smooth, aromatic, and thanks to firm rolling provide optimal draw resistance. Compared to buying individually, you save over 30%.
La Chaveta Cutter
To complete the elegant appearance, a matching cigar cutter is also available. It is crafted by another friend of our company: Thorsten Wolfertz, who manufactures the reliable accessories using original Solingen blades. A perfect complement to the new premium private label from Nicaragua.
