In 1874, the company was bought by Luis Corujo, who refined the cigars’ aromatic profile while giving them more character in terms of their appearance and technical characteristics. Ten years later, Punch became the property of Don Manuel Lopez Fernandez, founder of Juan Valle \u0026amp; Co. The year 1925 marked a move: Punch cigars were henceforth made in the factory where Hoyo de Monterrey cigars are rolled. This collaboration between the two brands is still ongoing today for part of the production. When the Wall Street stock market crash of October 1929 hit, the resulting economic crisis did not spare Punch. The brand was sold again, and the buyer was Palacio y Cía. Thanks to the new owner’s initiatives, Punch moved upmarket, which increased its reputation and led to a significant rise in sales.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharacteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e\nPunch cigars are either mild or medium-bodied.
