La Gloria Cubana
The La Gloria Cubana brand was created in 1885 by the Sociedad Cabañas y Castro, then bought twenty years later in 1905 by José F. Rocha, who manufactured the brand from his factory at 364 Miguel Street in Havana. After Rocha’s death in 1954, the Cifuentes family bought both La Gloria Cubana and Bolivar from Rocha’s former company. Production was moved to the Partagas Factory, where it’s still produced today, and became very popular as an export brand.
After the Revolution, it seems that production of La Gloria Cubana ceased for several years, until around 1965 when the brand was apparently resurrected at the Partagás Factory. It is produced in smaller quantities than other brands and maintains its popularity with connoisseurs, the Médaille d’Or No. 2 being a particularly prized vitola.
