West Tampa Tobacco Company Unveils “Boliche Boulevard” Cigar

Rick Rodriguez, co-owner and blender at West Tampa Tobacco Company, proudly introduces the latest addition to their lineup—“Boliche Boulevard”. This cigar serves as a homage to the rich Cuban culinary tradition thriving along Tampa’s Columbus Drive, affectionately known as “Boliche Boulevard” among locals.

Expressing the personal significance of this release, Rodriguez highlights the deliberate choice of naming the company West Tampa to celebrate the city’s extensive cigar-making history and contribute to shaping its promising future.
