History of WEST TAMPA

West Tampa Tobacco Company is the living embodiment of a family's enduring dedication to the craft of cigar making. Founded in 1953 when Rick Rodriguez's grandparents, renowned cigar rollers, left behind the allure of Havana to pursue their passion in the bustling cigar business of West Tampa, this brand reflects a legacy of hard work, resilience, and unwavering respect for tradition. Their grandson, Rick, a recognized cigar master, has now taken the helm, continuing the tradition by offering meticulously handcrafted cigars that pay homage to their rich heritage, blending gratitude, tradition, and a dedication to the finest quality in every roll.
