Toscano Ceramic Ashtray

The fascinating story of TOSCANO® cigars began in August 1815, in the tobacco plant in Florence. On that occasion, a batch of tobacco that had been left to dry in the summer sun was suddenly drenched by a violent downpour.
Given the immense amount of tobacco that then became unusable for its original purpose, the decision was taken to experiment with producing cheap cigars to be sold to the people of Florence. What happened was truly extraordinary: the water that had soaked the tobacco caused an unusual fermentation, giving the cigar a completely unmistakable taste.  This  Toscano Ceramic ashtray celebrated this fascinating history of the company.
