The Makers

Growers first. Makers by consequence.

Günther Schichl

The Farmer — Tobacco & Production

For more than twenty years, Günther has worked directly in Dominican tobacco — cultivation, fermentation, ageing and blend development. His principle is simple: quality before speed. Every leaf is chosen with intent, and every cigar carries that patience.

Sales & Partnerships

Tristan turns exceptional tobacco into lasting partnerships. He guides retailers, distributors and private-label clients from first conversation to finished cigar — a personal, consultative process built on trust rather than pressure.

“Exceptional cigars begin long before they are rolled.”
Günther Schichl

The Presentation

A box worth opening

Ramon arrives the way it was made — with care. A black lid, a gold mark, and two small rituals before the first cigar is lit.

  1. Open Ramon by Lab del Sol cigar box showing a postcard of Dominican tobacco fields and a Gracias seal
    01

    First, a postcard from the field

    Lift the lid and the tobacco fields greet you before the cigars do — sealed with a single word: Gracias.

  2. Open Ramon by Lab del Sol box with ten banded cigars in a wooden tray
    02

    Then, ten cigars laid by hand

    Fold back the tissue: ten banded cigars rest side by side in a wooden tray, with a ribbon to lift the first one out.
