cigars were in high demand in the United Kingdom and the United States. To attract these customers, a common practice was to manufacture brands with Anglo-American names. One such example is the Lord Byron brand, created by these cousins and named for the famed English poet Lord Byron. 
The Lord Byron line sold like crazy. So much so that after a few years, the cousins moved to a larger factory, this time in Havana. The brand would remain a success for generations. But, as the story so often goes, the party came to an end or at least hit a temporary bump in the road. Ricardo Alfonzo, one of the cousin’s grandson, was running the company when a series of financial hardships came knocking, and he was forced to sell the Lord Byron brand. It would take 90 years for Nelson Alfonso, great-grandson of Ricardo Alfonzo, to revive the brand as Byron Cigars through his company.
