I stopped in to pick up a couple of boxes for someone who is a huge fan of these Cigars. While on premises I had an opportunity to see how the cigars were made. It was a very original experience. A bit nostalgic to see the old way of doing something. I have always admired skilled trades and I have... More

My husband & I visited the Caribbean Cigar Company on our recent visit to Barbados. We were very impressed with the process of rolling the cigars. We were given a personal tour and the women that worked there were very good at explaining each step it takes to make these great cigars. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and of course... More

We got a tour around the factory and the woman were all lovely, must be weird having people watching you work while they enjoy their holiday but these ladies were lovely and showed us how they make up-to 200 cigars a day

Not a big tourist tour, but very laid back and authentic, You can look around ladies making cigars while they work and they will explain all the steps they do. very interesting and fun way to spend half hour.

Diamond in the rough! Stopped in to purchase a few cigars while staying in Bridgetown. Other shops in town were way over-priced for good cubans. Wound up with a personal tour of each cigar station. Bought a box of cigars & loving each one of them to this day. Even gave a few precious cigars out as gifts. Highly recommend... More

Slightly dissappointed that the cigars weren't rolled on the thighs of dusky maids but it was a fascinating hour spent watching how they were made. The factory is up some steep steps and was quite a find, they welcoming staff took us through the processes and you felt you were experiencing a true part of bajun life. You can but... More

We stopped in when we were here on a cruise a few years ago based upon good reviews from other visitors. It is within walking distance from the ship but keep your eyes open or you will walk past it. It is located in the upstairs portion of a building. The ladies are very nice but some are better with... More

The ladies making the cigars were very friendly and were happy to answer any questions, there is no charge. There is a counter where you can buy the cigars, but even though there is no charge to go in and watch how they are made you don't feel under any pressure to buy anything.
