About Punch

Established 1840 • Cuba
Punch premium cigars

Punch stands as one of the oldest continuously produced cigar brands in the world, founded in 1840 in Havana by a German businessman known as Stockmann and named after Mr. Punch of the iconic Punch and Judy puppet shows to appeal to British cigar smokers. The brand was transformed into an internationally recognised premium marca by Manuel López Fernández from 1884, whose name still appears on every Cuban Punch cigar band and box more than 140 years later. Known for its bold, full-flavoured character with notes of earth, leather, cedar, nuts, coffee, and pepper, Punch cigars are crafted from premium Vuelta Abajo tobacco and produced at the La Corona factory in Havana. With a heritage spanning over 180 years and a history intertwined with sister brand Hoyo de Monterrey since 1931, Punch continues to deliver accessible yet complex smoking experiences that have earned multiple Cigar Aficionado Top 25 placements and consistent 90+ ratings across its diverse range of vitolas.

• Named after Mr. Punch from the Punch and Judy puppet shows — registered a full year before the famous British Punch magazine launched in 1841, making the puppet show the true origin of the name
• Manuel López Fernández purchased the brand in 1884 and built it to international prominence; his name has survived revolution, nationalisation, and multiple ownership changes to still appear on every Cuban Punch box and band today
• Punch and Hoyo de Monterrey have been united under shared ownership since 1931 when Fernández, Palicio y Cía acquired both brands, and they continue to share factory floors in both Havana and Danlí, Honduras to this day
• The Punch Punch (Corona Gorda, 5⅝ × 46) is the brand's signature Cuban vitola, described by Cigar Aficionado as Cuba's cigar for the connoisseur and a benchmark of the brand's bold character
• A 1993 vintage Cuban Punch Double Corona received a near-perfect 99-point rating from Cigar Aficionado in 2010, one of the highest scores ever awarded to any cigar
2020 Cigar Aficionado - #5 Cigar of the Year (Punch Short de Punch, 95-point Classic rating)
