West Tampa Tobacco Co.
Black Robusto Box Of 20 Cigars
WEST TAMPA
The seed for West Tampa Tobacco Company was planted in 1953, when Rick Rodriguez’s grandparents, both highly respected master cigar rollers, heeded the call of the U.S. They left behind the glamour of Havana for U.S. shores, seeking to capitalise on the booming cigar business of West Tampa, Florida.
The Rodríguezes made the U.S. their home and worked hard to provide for their family, never giving up on their craft, even when times were tough. Their love of tobacco skipped a generation, gathering momentum when it was awakened in their beloved grandson Rick. Growing up in West Tampa, in the shadow of the once bustling cigar factories, taught Rick the value of hard work and instilled in him grit and determination.
His grandparent’s stories of Havana and Cuban cigars in their heyday were never far from Rick’s mind. So, when the opportunity to work in the cigar business knocked, Rick was quick to answer. He soon found himself studying at the right hand of industry legends, most notably Benji Menendez who freely transferred his knowledge to Rick.
Decades later, Rick has been recognised as a cigar master in his own right. Always striving for more, Rick has taken a bold step to establish West Tampa Tobacco Company, to simply offer the finest handcrafted cigars, created with hard work, gratitude and a profound respect for tradition.
BLACK
West Tampa Tobacco Company Black cigars are the second blend from Rick Rodriguez’s label debut. These smokes will appeal to cigar enthusiasts who want a little more flavour, complexity, and intensity from their cigars.
Aged to perfection, a high-priming Ecuador Habano ‘Dark’ wrapper encases a well-balanced blend of Nicaraguan Ometepe binder bunched around Condega Viso and Estelí Ligero fillers.
Medium-full in body, West Tampa Tobacco Co. Black cigars are certain to please more seasoned and even some newer cigar smokers.

The West Tampa Tobacco Co. Black Robusto opens with a bold, rich burst of dark cocoa, roasted espresso beans, and prominent black pepper. As the smoke settles, deep notes of heavy earth, leather, and charred oak emerge, complemented by a subtle sweetness reminiscent of dark molasses before concluding with a full, spicy, and long-lasting finish.
