The last one, then we’re off.
Zarpe carries in its name two worlds that meet in a precise moment: the moment when something memorable begins, or when something perfect comes to an end.
Along the coast of Cuba, zarpe is the moment when a sailboat raises its anchor and sets off: toward the open sea, toward the unknown, toward the freedom that exists only when one dares to cast off the lines.
In Costa Rica, it means something else, and it is equally profound. Zarpe is the perfect excuse to stay a little longer with the people you care about, even though you know it is already time to leave. It is that round no one asked for, but everyone appreciates, because there are people with whom there is never enough time. Zarpe is saying “one more” not because another drink is needed, but because another moment together is.
Its three vitolas bear the names of three historic ports of Cuba: witnesses to departures that changed everything.
Isabela, a northern port, from which so many vessels set sail carrying dreams and goods toward lands never seen before.
Santiago, the birthplace of eastern Cuba, a port of history, resistance, and identity.
Nuevitas, one of the oldest bays in the Americas, where the first encounter between two worlds was forever marked.
Three ports. Three departures. Three different ways of saying the same thing: something begins here.
A sailboat as its symbol, because our life is, always, our greatest journey.
Zarpe is not just a cigar. It is our way of saying “stay a little longer” to those we love.
