Each tobacco leaf is cured after harvesting and before consumer consumption. After harvesting, the tobacco leaves must be cured, after the leaves are cured, they are sorted by color and size. Small or broken leaves are used for the cigar filler, large leaves for the inner wrapper or binder, and large, fine leaves, usually grown in shade or under cloth, are set aside for the outer wrapper.  The tobacco is kept in the shed for a period of six months to five years. The leaves undergo chemical changes during this period referred to as fermentation. During fermentation, the aroma and taste of the leaf develops.  The filler leaves must have their main vein (or stem) removed, or else the cigar will not burn evenly.  The stripped leaves are wrapped in bales and stored for further fermentation.

Cigars are checked for quality during each step of the manufacturing process. The quality of the tobacco leaves is very important, and leaves are sorted and inspected after curing, after fermentation, and before they are handcrafted into premium cigars. Vorieo Cigars are tested to measure diameter, length, and draw, only to supply a consistent and quantified experience.  Each cigar goes through a sixty month aging process which will give you a complex yet harmonious experience and exquisite aromas.
