I took this in Boca Chica which is about a half hour East from the Santo Domingo airport.

Despite the draw of the sea and golf, Tabacalera de Garcia is the only cigar factory in La Romana -- nearly all of the other ones in the Dominican Republic are clustered in and around Santiago, a manufacturing city well to the west. No commercial flights connect the two towns, just a traffic-laden, often dangerous road and a four-hour drive. In the cigar world, La Romana is isolated, and that benefited Seijas during the cigar boom; while his counterparts in Santiago were losing cigar rollers to newcomers, Seijas's workers stayed put.

In La Romana, Altadis produces a huge line-up of premium brands: Bock, Cabaņas, Don Diego, Flamencos Las Palmas, H. Upmann, Montecristo, Menendez y Garcia, Por Larraņga, and Romeo y Julieta.
I'd say its worth the trip . But try to find contact information and schedule a visit ahead of time.
