La Chaveta: Exclusive Longfillers from Nicaragua
We are thrilled to introduce a very special cigar line from the house of Cigarworld in late summer 2025: the La Chaveta Cigars. These hand-rolled longfillers from Nicaragua are the result of careful planning, deep expertise, and a genuine passion for exceptional cigars.
From Cigar Retailer to In-House Brand
For nearly three decades, the Cigarworld online shop has stood for exceptional selection and expertise in the world of premium cigars. In addition to offering a wide range of international brands, Cigarworld also develops its own lines – including established “house brands” such as La Domaine de Lavalette from the Dominican Republic and Rosa Nicaragua from Nicaragua. These lines offer excellent value for everyday enjoyment – unlike the more nuanced La Chaveta longfillers.
Nicaragua: The Heart of Fine Tobacco Craftsmanship
With the La Chaveta brand – an exclusive private label by Cigarworld – a new chapter begins: premium quality from Nicaragua with a unique identity. The vision of producing a proprietary cigar line in Estelí had long been in the minds of the Cigarworld team. It became a reality thanks to the collaboration with a trusted industry partner.
 
Ralf Westerwick, a long-time associate from North Rhine-Westphalia, runs the Tabacalera Casa de Alegría in Estelí. His announcement of expanded production capacities came at the perfect time – Cigarworld wasn’t looking for a large-scale industrial producer, but rather a partner with true dedication. The decision was made quickly, and implementation followed with the same care and commitment.
La Chaveta: Character and Quality in Every Detail
The La Chaveta line features a slightly firmer roll – ideal for controlled draw and even ash development. A distinctive feature is the double pigtail at both ends of the cigar – a unique design with strong visual appeal. Despite their premium craftsmanship, these cigars are priced well below the €10 mark, making them a compelling option for aficionados who value both quality and affordability.
The Meaning Behind the Name “Chaveta”
The word “La Chaveta” comes from the world of cigar making. It refers to the iconic rounded blade used to cut the wrapper leaf with precision – a tool that symbolizes craftsmanship and tradition. As a brand name, it represents authenticity and artisanal excellence.
Discover La Chaveta: Vitolas, Samplers, Accessories
La Chaveta Cigars are available in elegant wooden boxes, convenient freshpacks, and stylish soft packs. Multiple vitolas in the line cater to a variety of preferences. The entire collection is available exclusively through the Cigarworld online shop.
La Chaveta White
The brand’s debut is the La Chaveta White series. This blend offers a mild yet complex aroma, thanks to its filler composed of selected Nicaraguan tobaccos from the Estelí, Jalapa, and Condega regions – a prime example of expert blending from Central America.
- White Perla – compact format for shorter smoking breaks.
 - White Robusto – classic shape with a harmonious profile.
 - White Toro – full-bodied and bold, ideal for extended enjoyment.
 
La Chaveta Sampler
La Chaveta Samplers come in protective freshpacks and compact soft cases – visually appealing and perfect for on-the-go use. They offer a diverse selection of vitolas and are a great way to get acquainted with the line.
 
The first sampler – the White Freshpack – includes six longfillers in three different vitolas (Toro, Robusto, Perla). These cigars offer smooth aromas, creamy smoke, and excellent draw. When purchasing the sampler, you benefit from a savings of over 30% compared to buying individually.
La Chaveta Cutter
For the perfect cigar moment, Cigarworld also offers a high-quality cigar cutter made with genuine Solingen blades. Developed in collaboration with Thorsten Wolfertz, this stylish accessory combines elegance and functionality – a fitting complement to the La Chaveta brand.
