Our Factory

THE HEART OF OUR BRAND

The Chateau Diadem factory is located in the free zone of PISANO, just north of Santiago and minutes away from some of the largest and most renowned factories in the region. The tobaccos are carefully cured and fermented multiple times to allow the colors, taste, and aromas of the cigars to fully develop. Nicaraguan and Ecuadorian leaves are hand-selected by a dedicated team of professionals and sourced from some of the finest and most reputable growers in the region. The entire process is regarded as an art form of precision and creative mastery. As a boutique brand, Chateau Diadem maintains the ability to give meticulous attention to every detail and to every individual involved in its production.

Where it all began

DREAMS, FAMILY AND CONVICTION

Chateau Diadem was founded by cousins Emily Sahakian and Thierry Farah, who share roots in Geneva and a lifelong passion for cigars. Their journey began decades ago: Thierry entered the cigar world in the 1990s by launching one of Switzerland’s first online cigar shops, while Emily, with a background in luxury food and beverage, discovered a natural connection between cigars, wine, and craftsmanship. After years of immersion in the world of premium cigars, tasting, learning, and building, they combined their experience to pursue a shared dream: creating their own brand. In the Dominican Republic, that vision came to life through the creation of meticulously crafted blends. Their first release, CONVICTION, embodies this dedication to excellence and passion for the craft.
