Production
One workshop in Noord — about forty cigars an hour, says a Dutch guide
Annual Revenue
No figures. Aruba is a tourist island — a hundred thousand inhabitants, hotels along Palm Beach — and the cigar there is a shop near the Dutch windmill, selling visitors what it rolls in the afternoon. The tobacco grows on the island, on land that once yielded beans.

Sommelier Note
An arid island, cactus and wind, where a bean farmers' son planted tobacco and began rolling it around 2005. No cigar press has written it; this atlas has the story from a tourism office, a Dutch guide and a travel directory, and says so. The house's former domain now serves a shop in Ukraine unrelated to it — the atlas does not cite it.
