To commemorate United States Semiquincentennial, J.C. Newman Cigar Co. has released a limited collection of cigars honoring 250 years of American history. Only 250 premium cigar retailers nationwide will receive this exclusive set, with each shop allocated 250 cigars, all bearing the official America250 seal.
These cigars are handcrafted at El Reloj Cigar Factory, the last large cigar factory still producing cigars in the United States. Rolled by hand in Tampa, this commemorative release pays tribute to the long-standing connection between tobacco and American history.
Tobacco has been intertwined with the country’s development since 1612, when it was first commercially cultivated in the Virginia Colony. By the time of the American Revolution, tobacco was grown in all thirteen colonies, and several of the nation’s founders—including George Washington and Thomas Jefferson—were themselves tobacco farmers.
What’s Included
This commemorative release features cigars from some of J.C. Newman’s most historic blends:
The American
The first 100% American-grown cigar, crafted entirely from heirloom tobaccos cultivated in the United States and rolled at El Reloj. Even the packaging is produced domestically, making it a true celebration of American craftsmanship.
Angel Cuesta
Originally created for King Alfonso XIII over a century ago, Angel Cuesta is known for its smooth, elegant profile. This release introduces the first-ever Angel Cuesta Shade Double Robusto, wrapped in a refined Ecuador Havana or Nicaraguan Shade wrapper.
El Reloj Collection Sampler
A curated assortment celebrating the cigars handcrafted inside Tampa’s historic El Reloj factory.
A Celebration of American Craftsmanship
Established in 1895, J.C. Newman Cigar Co. is one of the oldest family-owned cigar manufacturers in the United States. While thousands of cigar factories once operated across the country, El Reloj now stands as the last major factory still rolling premium cigars on American soil.
With the America250 release, the Newman family honors both the heritage of American tobacco and the enduring tradition of handcrafted cigars made in the United States.
Extremely limited. Once these sets are gone, they will not be produced again.
