Pepin Garcia Factory Tour

[LordHector]

How did Porter Cable equipment make it to Cuba?

[doug1863]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO. THE VID ITSELF AND THE MUSIC !!!!!!

[doug1863]

does pepein garcia do any admin work since this is his company or is he always doing hands on work?

[trollkors78]

How is it with smoking cigars in the factory? I saw there some working people smoke cigars - are they allowed to smoke few pieces a day? Or must they pay (in any way) for the cigars?

And in 4:04 there are some people with fresh tobacco leaves and some bags on their shoulders (as if they are going home from the work?) - are they taking this leaves to the factory or ...?

Thanks for answer.

[doug1863]

@trollkors78 so what was the answer to your questions in the pepin video

[trollkors78]

Don Pepin handrolling a cigar... great! 

[Argonath18]

This is fantastic! Thanks for posting!

[gregorskiff]

Watching a master like Don Pepin roll a cigar...just...wow he makes it look easy, many years of skill show, go to his site- El Rey de los Habanos there are a couple pics of Pepin as a young Torcedor in Cuba.

I read that Don Pepin takes very good care of his people, it shows here.

if you want to support, now is the time, massive storms right now, hard times.

if you like the Cuban Classic black label, give the Esteban Carreras Habano maduro a try...freakin awesome smokes...both of em.

[styles1214]

this is making me go cbid a bid on them right now great smokes

[ilivensoca]

I didn't know the amount of effort and skill it takes to make if fine cigar... I cain't wait to play golf and have a cigar.

[doug1863]

what is the name of the first song ? it is not my tierra

[potboy321]

Awesome! Too bad for our shitie country which makes it harder by taxing even those countries for exporting tobaccos.

[Sungodv]

Obama and the Dems are trying their darnedest to put these workers and American tobacconists out of business. Pipe tobacco is next.

SCHIP.

Look it up.

[Str8xBallinBaby]

Hello there. I need to know what the song that starts around 7:10 is. Can you give me the song name and artist?

[TECC415]

Pepin actually pays his workers pretty well, he also provides them food and shelter

[ArubaG]

Pepins cigar creates job oportunities for these people. I don't know if they 're well paid or not.

[leonson]

Lo caro de los puros y la gente que trabaja en en la industria tan pobre como siempre

[club3006]

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. I don't know how Don Pepin does it, but in terms of taste, his cigars most closely mimic Cubans of any that I have ever smoked - but Pepin's cigars are of MUCH better quality. Thanks for the hard work you and your people do Pepin!

[craigmcdonagh1]

how do nicaraguan* cigars compare to cubans....?

[Ben1238]

Cuban cigars are not the end all be all of cigars and some are quite over rated. At the end of the day it is all about personal taste. I have had cuban cigars and those I've had are really, really good! However, when you get past the whole "cuban" mystique they are really just another cigar!

[SirianKings]

I hope the workers get paid proper wages.

[6t5]

union wages maybe?

[WobblingHobGoblin]

wow, alotta labour goes into making cigars.

Great vid, thanks!

[esteli2007]

Mi Pedasito de tierra esteli donde yo naci , y donde tengo muchos recuerdos de mi niñes recuerdo cuando tenia 13 Años y caminaba por sus calles con mis amigos que siempre los recuerdo i love you esteli

[grekito]

Nicaragua Rules!

[elderboy02]

I love all Don Pepin Garcia cigars. Especially the black label 1979 and the DPG Serie JJ Maduro

[BHARMS2]

an artform of its i enjoy a nice cigar once in a while

[litedave]

Awesome. Make me want to move to Nicaragua.

[Brickhouse78]

The Master

[longlivetheloud2]

Wow, that was mouth watering.

i hope they wash their hands.

[Bhab667]

dont worry, im sure they dont lol

[reon1978]

They probably don't but it's all a part of that "special" taste you get ;)

[buchofmx]

Unbeleivable... What a product

[thunderbucks]

Simply amazing...this man makes the best cigars this side of Havana.

[moustang76]

Very nice video of cigar production

[litedave]

Great video! Really nice tour of Pepin's operation down in SA. Takes you through all the steps from plantings to finished product.

[labcoat31]

There is nothing better in life than a fine cigar!!!

[tut4321]

except maybe a glass of fine single malt whiskey or a Italian sports car and that is a big maybe

[labcoat31]

Yes, Except I can afford the cigar and whiskey.

[kgonepostl]

@labcoat31

There are many cigars that taste great and have a very low price tag. Try the Bahia red maduro. 20 wonderfull cigars for only 35 bucks. I'm having one right now.

[angryniggah]

@labcoat31 uhhhhhhh, you ever been to pussy heaven?

[CityHunter84]

@labcoat31 you must have not tasted the vagina of a pre pubescant girl.

joke of course :-D

[jmshd]

I want to grab al those cigares xd

[mac804]

I agree that Pepin is currently making some of the best cigars being offered at the moment. Tatuaje cabinet and Havana VI are some that come to mind. Also the JJ lines and, hell I even like the JJ Maduro which many aren't very fond of. But if you really wnat to try a good "Pepin Creation", give the 601 green label a try. My favorite is the figurado, "La Punta"... damn fine blend and who can argue with a habano oscuro wrapper?

[dunlopturtle]

la punta is a wonderful smoke. i know the guy who named that cigar. he works at harry's in oviedo fl. great guy, great cigar.

[PYRTEX]

What's the name of the song at 3:00 ?

[boazburns1990]

How much would one of these cigars cost you?

[BrItAnNiAsBlAdE]

This looks amazing! Im gona have to give cigars a try, but what to start with?

[littoines]

Pepin is making the best cigars right now. I believe they are right up there with some CC's.

The Don Pepin black label Robusto is a fantastic complex smoke.

The Padilla Miami lancero which Pepin makes for the Padilla company is right up there also as one of the top non Cubans.

[bubbathepig]

how about the arturo fuentes?

there good

[FunnyWizKid]

good tast!

[deitrich23]

Great video! My mouth was left watering for a cigar- time to go search the humidor for a good one!

[fiutjxu]

woooooow

[Lifesavr5]

No its not. American Socialists (liberals) don't care about economics, just feel-good policy.

[sadzior]

liberals dont want any tax

[olsaltybastard]

I love smoking cigars and it's nice to see the people that make them. Hard to believe these people were almost put out of a job by the American Socialists who wanted to put a $10 tax per cigar.

[samandjam]

Just smoked a Pepin Blue Label torpedo yesterday. Man, that was a strong smoke. Not for the timid. Complex and interesting flavor

[IRLON24S]

juan talamera.

I've been doing this for several months now. I can tell you that after watching this video, I now enjoy my cigars more, having known how they evolved.

[bigpapykane]

Makes me wana buy some Tatuajes, Ernesto Padilla's, or Don Pepin's. All pricey cigars but all worth every penny!

[47065360]

El desesperado antojo de poder fumar uno de éstos.

Gracias por mostrarnos todo el intrincado proceso que es necesario para poder disfrutar de un exelente puro.

[10lalocoat]

El mundo del "Puro" es apasionante, rico, colorido y sobre todo reconfortante para todos los sentidos humanos, quien no pueda apreciar esto es que carece de sencibilidad pero lo que me parece realmente hermoso es ver a toda esa gente morena trabajando...los felicito a todos, graciar por su trabajo.

[datasiphon]

Don "Pepin" Garcia is the man. He make the best cigars!

[Kedeoart]

i love cigars.

[porktree]

Spectacular, thanks for showing this.

[warrior6977]

Awesome video!. It's always good to see a great video (and 11 minutes long too!) of all the hard work that goes into making cigars. I'm gonna check out his cigars online now and buy up a few.

[gurkhabeast]

good video...it's always cool to see how cigars are made
