El Viejo Continente has already opened its own factory in the city of Condega, center of Nicaragua, for which the company has made a great invest effort, close to a million dollars. \u201cIt may not seem is too much,\u201d says Daniel Guerrero, \u201cbut we are a very small company and for us It\u2019s been a great investment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The new facilities of El Viejo Continente in Condega are already operating at full capacity, to soon exceed a production of more than one million cigars a year, with a staff of one hundred workers, forty rollers and a vision for the future, because they have opened a small school to train new cigar makers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Don Juan<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">From this new factory, the first brand new line is El Viejo Continente Don Juan, which Daniel has dedicated to his father, Juan Guerrero. The cigar is a toro format (152 mm x 54), finished in pigtail, with am habano oscuro wrapper from Ecuador, binder and filler from Nicaragua, but \u201cwe have added a high percentage of tobacco from Ometepe island (Nicaragua) to the blend\u201d, says Daniel Guerrero. \u201cMy father throw me the challenge that we had to create a cigar to his taste, something that is not easy, because I know that means it has to be full flavor, but I think he\u2019s been reasonably satisfied with the result\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">El Viejo Continente Don Juan will be shipped to the markets after the show in the toro shape, but before the end of the year there will be a new size: diadema format, doble figurado, with a 58 ring gauge.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From this new factory, the first brand new line is El Viejo Continente Don Juan, which Daniel has dedicated to his father, Juan Guerrero.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39,"featured_media":65090,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[49,55,2812,44],"tags":[9075],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65089"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/39"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65089"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65089\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":65092,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65089\/revisions\/65092"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/65090"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65089"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65089"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65089"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
