Cigar display at the Conch Republic Cigar factory, Old Town Key West, Florida, USA

---

Cigar making came to Key West from Cuba and in the late 19th century the city was producing more than 100 million stogies a year, making it the undisputed cigar capital of the world. They are still hand made here, such as these, rolled and sold at the Conch Republic Cigar factory in Old Town Key West, Florida, USA
