While not all that new, Casa de Sueños is a brand that I’m guessing many of our readers aren’t familiar with. It was started in late 2018 by a group from LG Cigar Club in San Jose. Eventually, they found their way to the Dominican Republic and selected De Los Reyes to make their cigars.

As such, the Casa de Sueños booth is part of the De Los Reyes et al. series of booths, which includes Debonaire House, Patoro, Topper Cigar Co. and, in the past, Cattle Baron. This year, the booth got a complete makeover: there’s now an island of shelves for each brand and then various seating areas around the booth. While this is definitely a more efficient use of space, it’s certainly not as colorful as the previous version. In addition, I found the lighting to be difficult to work with for photographs.

Casa de Sueños had nothing new to show off, instead focusing on its existing core lines, though the company is working on a new blend that will be its fullest offering to date. It’s expected to be available before the end of the year.
