Later on during the day we will visit farm El Rosario, which offers a suitable environment to enjoy a paring of tobacco and Centenario Rum with 18 year of ageing and we will be delighted with an equestrian Spanish show. To lose the day with a perfect final, we will head to our venue hotel to experience what we have entitled “Puro Humo”, the best tasting night ever.

THIRD DAY: JAN 14 - THE ESTELI TOUR

Our country’s North Region awaits for you and in its heart, the beautiful Estelí, “tobacco’s capital city”.We will have lunch in front of a gorgeous panoramic view at the Tavicusa factory plantations, where the Rocky Patel brand comes to life. Here you will enjoy a lively exchange with the tobacco industry’s protagonists. Afterwards, a grand tour of the factories where the best Nicaraguan cigars are created: AJ Fernandez, Drew Estate Tobacco Company S.A, Joya de Nicaragua, My Father, Nicaraguan American Cigars S.A, Oliva Cigars, Padrón, Pensa, Plasencia, Procenicsa, and Scandinavian Tobacco Group. As night falls, the traditional White Party will begin. This is a joyful and traditional Trova Music Night, where you will have the chance to wear the festival’s official guayabera shirt, produced by Nicaraguan hands.

FOURTH DAY: JAN 15-  PLANTATIONS & FACTORY TOURS

We will begin the morning touring the majestic plantations of the region, engaging directly with the growing process of the tobacco plant. Lunch will be specially scented! It will take place in a site that is one step away from where talented Nicaraguan hands ensemble cigars. For the evening we have prepared a pleasant talk with Nicaraguan tobacco legends so that you can learn about the history of the country’s cigar pioneers, new market trends and the economy of the industry. At night, the fabulous Dinner Gala will take place, the ideal showcase for the elegance and pride of our tobacco industry.  We will auction special products designed exclusively for this festival, with the goal of supporting the most needed population of Estelí. You will take away with you the aroma of a great tobacco nation and the esteem of
an industry with a rich history, high quality levels and a true human face.

We are counting on you! Come and experience the best of the International Tobacco Festival Puro Sabor 2016.

ABOUT MUKUL GOLF RESORT:

Out of the lush rainforest and rugged ocean bluffs comes a David McLay Kidd signature oceanfront 18-hole course meeting world standards never before attempted in Nicaragua. 

A challenge to players of all skill levels, Guacalito Golf Course seamlessly melds Mother Nature's contours of terrain while at the same time, preserving the delicate, breathtaking environment that makes Nicaragua's Emerald Coast special. Beautiful hardwood bridges made with fallen timber grace many holes. A special treated-water irrigation system keeps with the resort's commitment to sustainability. And the course's finishing hole, an unconventional par-3, was designed specifically to save mature trees instead of removing them. 

The result is a worthy example of golf at its absolute finest.
