Calling Columbo : Antero


Recommended Posts

Another for the FOH sleuths! :looking:

 

Antero Cigars. 

The boxes don't provide too much detail but hopefully enough in order to dig up some information/history on the brand

In the 1st pic the sunburst logo on the right side edge looks similar to ones used by Quintero. Antero in Spanish means anterior. It is also a last name. The Pope around 236 AD his last name was Antero. Quintero was manufactured in Cienfuegos by 4 brothers starting in 1924. In the 40's they set up a small factory in Havana. Agustin Quintero was the head of the group maybe they fused his name to differentiate Cienfuegos from Havana cigars.
