Tenerife cigars may be hand rolled. Find out where to buy...

Tenerife cigars are much wanted as gifts or by people that simply love smoking them.

Some insist on Cuban cigars but, the ones made in Tenerife are a good alternative.
Besides, best cigars which always come from Cuba are much more expensive than the so called Puros Tinerfeños or Puros Canarios ,( Canary cigars ) as the locals say in Spanish. Hand made or hecho a mano applies to Arturo's cigars..

My pal Guenther Dahmen is something like a walking Tenerife insider resource because, he has been a tourist on the island since 1972 and has now settled and retired there.

He mentioned a mustard yellow house on the coastal road for buying Tenerife cigars twice when we were driving along the Garachico sea chore.

Lately, I managed to go see this shop.

Notice the new, more prominent and more touristic address of Tabacos Arturo to buy Tenerife cigars.
Avda. Tomé Cano, 8 right opposite the famous, natural pools Caletón or Charcos Garachico.
Find Arturo's cigars now almost beside the good Tenerife food restaurant Restaurante Rocamar which has the same house facade and stone steps leading to a high first floor.

Indeed, the Garachico cigar shop for the most exotic handrolled cigars is now just a little up the road with a life size Tenerife custom dressed Mannequin dressed in local custom attire by its door where Tabacos Arturo is marked with big letters.

The man inside doesn't seem to speak any other language than Spanish.

Anyway, his telephone handy number is (Spain 0034) 654 28 37 33 or 654 28 37 30.

You are bound to pass this tobacco shop on the way south 1 minute after the rock pools Garachico.

You may notice little parking space in front.

A little further on we found some.

We were in a hurry on our day trip to Icod, Masca, San Eugenio beach and Arona.

I tried to find out only the most important.

Yes, the man whose name might be Miguel Angel Jiménez Muñoz because that's what his business card says can sell you hand rolled cigars.

Many tourists want to buy hand rolled cigars.

The salesman made one for me. I suppose that he can make any shape or virtually any size if the tobacco leaf he pulls out permits. Therefor, no point to show you a photo. For a rather slim pointy cigar he charged me 1 Euro.

My pal just loves hand rolled Tenerife cigars from Tabacos Arturo and says that's the best shop for it on the island.

I haven't tried the one I bought. A victim needs finding to sample mine. This cigar is called a Caliceño.

To judge by the smell of the tobacco it must be good.

Please, return from Tenerife cigars to shopping in Tenerife.

Mind the new environmental policy which has been turned into an anti smoking law on January 01, 2011 for the whole of Spain which includes all its provinces including Tenerife...
