Top 5 Cigars to Smoke for Nicaraguan Independence Day 2022

September 15, 2022

Nicaraguan Independence Day lands every September 15th and is a national holiday that commemorates the independence of the Central American territories.

Before the arrival of Christopher Columbus in 1502, Nicaragua was an indigenous region. After several colonization attempts over the following decades, Nicaragua fell under Spanish rule as part of the Kingdom of Guatemala. However, after centuries of upset and a final successful rebellion, Nicaragua and its Central American neighbors earned independence from Spanish rule in 1821.

Today, Nicaraguan Independence Day is celebrated across the nation every September 15th. Schools read the Act of Independence of Central America to ensure every student understands the importance of independence and partake in abundant activities. The latter revolves around Nicaraguan culture, including music and dancing.

As continental neighbors, we are fully in support of Nicaraguan Independence Day. And if there’s one way we know how to show our support for their great nation, it’s by celebrating some of their finest tobaccos.

Discover five of the best Nicaraguan cigars to smoke this September 15th and pay homage to the diverse culture of the independent nation.
