1681 Red Camacho **Man Box**, Watch Box, Dresser Valet, Desk Box, Gun Box, Father’s Day Gift
These gorgeous Camacho cigar boxes come with what they call a grand piano finish because they have 16 layers of lacquer! I’m always amazed at how much time and love these cigar manufacturers put into their cigar boxes! This is a Camacho, Rojo (red) Churchill cigar box with heavy hinges. The original seals are intact. I added the very ornate feet, a black matte metal knob and lined the cigar box with padded and plush black velvet. The original Camacho scorpion logo remains authentically on the inner lid. 8 x 8.25 x 2.25/2.75″ with the ornate feet. These look great on a dresser, desk, bar or bookcase. Valet for keys, wallet and change, watch box, gun box, jewelry box, stash box- the uses are endless. Great gift for Valentine’s Day, Father’s Day, graduation or groomsmen gifting. Perfect guy gift in general! THIS IS AN AUTHENTIC CIGAR BOX, SO SMALL FLAWS INFLICTED BY THE SMOKERS OF THE CIGARS ARE TO BE EXPECTED! Large flaws will be noted in the description. If you don’t like what you see, I can do custom cigar box purses and can include anything you like!- pictures of family members, pets, places- you name it! I always ship insured.

History: Originally from Cuba, Simon Camacho was exiled and relocated to Miami, Florida, which is where he first started manufacturing cigars in 1961. An avid tobacco enthusiast himself, Camacho knew that he could obtain the finest tobaccos in Central America to make his signature smokes. He opened up his own tobacco factory in Miami and began having excellent tobaccos imported. As the business started taking off, Camacho set his eyes on Nicaragua as a place where he could manufacture his cigars. After relocating his facility, his business took off more than ever before. Before long, his cigars were beloved by famous smokers like Winston Churchill. Camacho eventually passed away in 1990. Five years later, the Eiroa family acquired the brand with the determination to continue his legacy. This was when the manufacturing facility was relocated to Honduras, another country known for its exceptional tobaccos. Julio Eiroa and Simon Camacho had a lot in common. Both of them were originally from Cuba but were transported to Florida during the revolution. Eiroa’s father had been a tobacco farmer since the early 1900s and had passed down his knowledge to his son. Shortly after the time of the brand’s acquisition, Julio’s son Christian took over. Julio had done well for himself and his family, acquiring massive plantations in Honduras where his signature tobacco could be cultivated. Christian was able to take the Camacho name to the next level by developing exceptional cigar products that became highly popular within the United States and around the world. By the late 1990s, about three million Camacho cigars were being produced annually, which shows how popular the name had become after the Eiroa family took over. In 2008, the Camacho brand and manufacturing facility were acquired by the Davidoff family. The Davidoff family was able to develop new branding and marketing strategies that have allowed the name to see success like never before.
