Celebrating American tobacco, tradition, and craftsmanship.
A Vision Realized
J.C. Newman Cigar Company, one of America's oldest family-owned cigar makers, launched 'The American' in 2018. The brand was conceived as a tribute to the company's roots and the rich history of American cigar manufacturing. It represents a long-held dream to create a premium cigar using only tobacco grown and processed entirely within the United States, a feat rarely achieved in the modern cigar industry.
All-American Blend
The American cigars are distinguished by their exclusive use of American-grown tobacco for the wrapper, binder, and filler. This includes Florida Sun Grown wrapper, Connecticut Broadleaf binder, and fillers from Pennsylvania and Connecticut. The resulting profile is typically medium-bodied, offering a unique flavor experience that reflects the distinct terroir of these American tobacco regions, often with notes of earth, spice, and natural sweetness.
Craftsmanship in Tampa
Every cigar from The American line is meticulously hand-rolled at the historic El Reloj factory in Tampa, Florida. This factory, operational since 1910, is one of the last remaining large-scale cigar factories in the United States. The brand's commitment to domestic production, from cultivation to rolling, makes it a rare and significant example of a truly 'Made in USA' premium cigar in today's global market.
