My passion for Cuban cigars begun approximately 15 years ago with a colleague introducing me to my first Habanos cigar. The attraction and fascination was almost instantaneous! There's something about the Cuban soil, tobacco, climate (and importantly) the cigar rollers that make Cuban cigars unique and sets them apart from all other cigars. Their reputation over the years has given them a special aura or mystique that keeps many smokers coming back again and again.

As a regular buyer over many years of Cuban cigars I found it increasingly frustrating with a handful of web sites offering good service, some offering good pricing or perhaps great cigar review information! I found myself going from site to site and eventually grew tired of not getting the service and information I was looking for. With my passion and knowledge for Habanos cigars established many years ago I was attracted to the idea of designing a site and began a company that would focus on all these strengths. La Casa De Puros trading online at www.cubancigars.net.au was finally launched early in 2007.
