DON EMMANUEL CIGARS CONTINUES GLOBAL EXPANSION WITH ENTRY INTO OMAN

On the heels of Anunnaki Anu being named to Robb Report’s prestigious 2026 Best of the Best and Anunnaki being selected as a finalist for Best Dominican Cigar of 2026 at the Cigar Journal Cigar Trophy Awards, Don Emmanuel Cigars announces its expansion into Oman, marking another important step in the brand’s rapidly growing international presence and continued development in the Middle East.

Don Emmanuel Cigars will be represented in Oman by Ashish Chaturvedi, with the brand available at Puro Cigar Lounge. The expansion introduces cigar enthusiasts in Oman to Don Emmanuel's distinctive approach to premium cigars, which combines the perspective of a Master Cigar Sommelier with the blending expertise of legendary Master Blender Eladio Díaz.

"The Middle East has a sophisticated and passionate cigar culture, and we are very excited to bring Don Emmanuel Cigars to Oman," said Emmanuel, Co-Founder and Creator. "As we continue to grow internationally, it is important for us to work with people who understand our philosophy, believe in what we are creating and can share our story with cigar enthusiasts in their market. We are very excited to begin this new chapter in Oman."

The Oman expansion follows Don Emmanuel Cigars' continued growth across Latin America, the Caribbean and Africa, further strengthening the brand's international footprint as it enters strategic cigar markets around the world.

At the center of the Don Emmanuel portfolio are Anunnaki and the limited-edition Sun & Moon, both co-blended by Don Emmanuel and Master Blender Eladio Díaz at Tabacalera Díaz Cabrera in the Dominican Republic. Both projects reflect Emmanuel's distinctive sommelier perspective, combining exceptional tobaccos, balance and complexity with the mythology and cosmic inspiration that define the Don Emmanuel brand.

The expansion into Oman represents another step in Don Emmanuel Cigars' broader strategy of entering new markets while maintaining a strong emphasis on relationships, education and support for the retailers and partners representing the brand.

LA Cigar Collective releases “Le Flambeaux”

LA Cigar Collective’s third exclusive blend pairs New Orleans tradition with an unexpected full-bodied expression from Kelner Cigars.

METAIRIE, LA -Some cigars tell stories. Some are born from tradition. Others from innovation.

Le Flambeaux began with a challenge.

For its third exclusive cigar, LA Cigar Collective (LACC) turned to Klaas Kelner of Kelner Family Cigars with a specific request: create a cigar that pushes beyond the strength profile smokers might traditionally associate with a Kelner blend while preserving the complexity, balance, and refinement that have defined his work.

The challenge from LACC was simple:

“Build us a cigar that’s full-bodied. Push beyond the strength profile people expect from a Kelner blend without sacrificing the complexity and balance that define your work.”

The objective was never strength for strength’s sake. Instead, LACC wanted to explore another dimension of one of the cigar industry's respected blending talents.

The result is Le Flambeaux.

Carrying the Torch

The name draws its inspiration directly from New Orleans and the historic flambeaux carriers of Mardi Gras.

Before modern street lighting transformed nighttime parades, flambeaux carriers walked the routes bearing flaming torches, illuminating the procession for those gathered along the streets. Derived from the French word for “torch,” flambeau has become an enduring symbol of New Orleans tradition.

For LACC, that history became an appropriate metaphor for the project.

Le Flambeaux is about shining a light on a side of Klaas Kelner’s blending talent that many cigar smokers may not have experienced.

Rather than abandoning the characteristics associated with Kelner's blending, Le Flambeaux expresses them through a richer, bolder, and more commanding profile.

At the heart of the blend is a filler composition containing 60% ligero, providing the strength and intensity LACC challenged Kelner to achieve.

A Mexican San Andrés wrapper surrounds an Ecuadorian Habano binder and Dominican filler tobaccos. The cigar is produced in the Dominican Republic at Kelner Family Cigars.

Throughout the smoking experience, Le Flambeaux delivers transitions of dark brownie chocolate—particularly the rich, caramelized character of the brownie’s outer edge—leather, raisins, and underlying sweetness.

Despite its considerable strength, the intention remains balance and complexity rather than sheer power.

A Collaboration Built on Creative Trust

Le Flambeaux represents more than LACC's third exclusive release. The project demonstrates what can happen when retailer and manufacturer are willing to challenge one another creatively.

LACC presented Kelner with an opportunity to step outside expectations. Kelner answered by creating a cigar that maintains his blending identity while exploring a decidedly more powerful expression.

For LA Cigar Collective, that willingness to experiment is precisely what an exclusive cigar should represent.

“This project stands as a testament to creative trust—when a retailer challenges someone at the top of their game, and they answer with something extraordinary.”

LA Cigar Collective invites cigar smokers to experience the result of that experiment and extends its appreciation to Klaas Kelner and Kelner Family Cigars for accepting the challenge—and carrying the torch. Production of 10,000. Available on LACigarCollective.com and SmallBatchCigar.com as well as select Brick and Mortar stores.

Packaged in a convenient, resealable humidor bag of five cigars, this new format makes it easier than ever for Brick House enthusiasts to experience a taste of this bold new offering.

It recognizes the popularity of larger ring gauge cigars, but its standard 5.5” length makes it more approachable than the typical 7” x 70.”

NECM Liberty or Death (LOD) (6 x 51 Double Perfecto)

Video review HERE.

(Description provided by Kevin Parow)

The cigar was made to celebrate the 250th birthday of the United States.

* Vitola: Double Perfecto

* Size: 6 x 51

* Wrapper: Habano

* Binder: Ecuadorian Sumatra

* Filler: Nicaragua & Dominican Republic

* Collaboration: LNV × Rockefeller Cigars

The cigar is well made and has a very nice band. The cigar has an average feel in the hand.

The test draw after cutting the cap was good. The initial flavors at light up were apple, pear, brown sugar, roasted almonds, and a lot of earthy black coffee. There was black pepper rated at 7 1/2. Pretty good start.

At the first third (22 minutes) the notes are about the same and they are fairly equal in amounts. The sweet notes and dark notes are fairly equal. There are still some almond notes floating around. The brown sugar is almost candy like; chewable. The cigar is medium body and starting to lean toward medium to full. The finish is apple with brown sugar and very good lingering black pepper. I rated the first third 94.

Moving through the second third (47 minutes) the black coffee continues it's march upward. The sweet notes are about the same but they are decreased due to the elevated black coffee. The cigar is medium to full bodied. The finish is a little apple and quite a bit of black coffee with very good lingering black pepper. I rated the second third 92.

The cigar lasted 1 hour 16 minutes. It rebounded back to almost exactly the way it was in the first third except the almond notes were hit and miss; mostly miss. The cigar is full bodied. The finish is unchanged. The first and final thirds are very good with the middle section having a little too much black coffee. I rated the final third 94. This is another good cigar from Kevin Parow.

Overall Score: 93.33

Plasencia Triunfal (6 1/4 x 54)

Video review HERE.

(Description taken from Halfwheel.com website)

Before the 2026 World Cup, a new Plasencia cigar arrived at stores. The Plasencia Triunfal is a 6 1/4 x 54 toro extra that uses a wrapper from Finca La Tradición in the Jamastrán Valley of Honduras and a binder from Finca San Agustín from Olancho, Honduras. The fillers come from Finca La Tradición and Jalapa, Nicaragua. Plasencia says that a single pair of workers at its Tabacos de Oriente factory in Danlí, Honduras rolled every cigar.

Each Triunfal has an MSRP of $59.99 and production is limited to 5,000 numbered boxes of 10 cigars.

The company says this is the first time it has released a cigar that has organic tobacco from both Honduras and Nicaragua.

“Triunfal represents much more than a cigar,” said José Luis Plasencia, fifth-generation member of the Plasencia cigar family, in a press release last month. “It reflects unity, resilience, and celebration—values that resonate deeply with our family’s heritage. We believe cigars are meant to accompany life’s most memorable moments, and Triunfal honors one of the most powerful shared celebrations inspired by the game that unites the world.”

The cigar is well made and has a nice feel in the hand.

The test draw after cutting the cap was good. The initial flavors at light up were a lemony pear, brown sugar, tanned leather, and earthiness. There was black pepper rated at 7 1/2. Pretty good start.

At the first third (34 minutes) the lead flavors of lemon and pear are still there but there's more brown sugar with them. There's still leather and earthiness in the mix and now there's also black coffee. The cigar is medium bodied. The finish is leather with very good lingering black pepper. The additional brown sugar helps. Even with it the sweetness is still in the medium to average category. I rated the first third 93.

As I moved through the second third (1 hour 3 minutes) the cigar got much earthier. The sweet notes are still there but they're suffering. The leather and black coffee seem decreased due to the increased earthiness. The cigar is still medium bodied but it's leaning toward medium to full. I rated the second third 91.

The cigar lasted 1 hour 32 minutes. The earthiness continues to increase. There is now minimal sweetness. There is still leather and black coffee which are quite noticeable. The cigar is medium to full bodied. The finish is unchanged. The cigar got earthier as it went. The sweetness continued to decrease and at this point it's at it's lowest. I rated the final third 86. I expected much more out of a $60 cigar. While the overall Score is 90 and technically I could smoke it again I will not be paying $60 for one.

Overall Score: 90

Joya de Nicaragua announces the release of Joya Red White and Blue

Joya de Nicaragua announces the release of Joya Red White and Blue, a limited-edition cigar created exclusively for the United States in celebration of the 250th anniversary of American independence.

"For decades, American cigar smokers have embraced Joya de Nicaragua and allowed us to grow alongside them,” said Joel Fernandez, SAG Imports National Sales Director, “This cigar is our way of saying thank you. As the United States celebrates 250 years of independence, we wanted to create something that could accompany our consumers during one of the most meaningful celebrations in their history. It also marks a special moment for us, as in 2026 we launch our independent distribution under SAG Imports in the United States — the world’s reference market for premium cigars.”

Joya Red White and Blue features an Ecuadorian H. wrapper over carefully selected binders and fillers from Jalapa & Esteli, crafted as part of the JOYA line alongside Joya Cabinetta, Red, Silver, and Black. True to the line’s signature approachability, it delivers a medium-bodied smoking experience, enhanced by extended aging to achieve a smoother, more refined expression that highlights the vibrant character of Joya.

The feel and look of the packaging was crafted in the same spirit as the occasion itself. Patriotic elements and quiet symbols of freedom, ambition, and the pursuit of new

horizons shape the band and the box in equal measure — honoring a country that has long inspired the world, and a cigar culture that has grown into one of its finest traditions.

“The packaging reflects the spirit of the celebration,” said Cristhian Lanzas, Marketing Director of SAG Imports. “It gently references American aviation, a symbol of freedom, ambition, and the pursuit of new horizons. The cigar band is also complemented by fifty stars encircling the design, representing the 50 states that form a nation that has long inspired the world.”

With a limited production of 500 boxes, Joya Red White and Blue will be presented in 10-count boxes in a traditional Toro (6 x 52) format, with an MSRP of $13.50 per cigar and $135 per box.

The cigar will make its official debut to retailers at the PCA Convention & Trade Show in New Orleans, at the SAG Imports Booth #3447, with shipments to U.S. cigar shops scheduled to begin in early June 2026, giving consumers time to enjoy it ahead of their Fourth of July celebrations.

JOYA DE NICARAGUA UNVEILS: CLÁSICO ORIGINAL GREEN ROOM SELECTION

In 1968, the first premium cigar factory in Estelí, Nicaragua opened its doors, founding Joya de Nicaragua and establishing the country as a serious cigar origin. The Joya de Nicaragua Clásico became the first premium cigar produced and exported from Nicaragua, winning the hearts of American cigar lovers through the 1970s and beginning the nation's ascent to  world-class status.

During that same era, Joya de Nicaragua was recognized as the foremost representative of New World cigars, offered to guests at The White House’s Green Room, where after formal dinners, politicians and diplomats would gather to relax, drink, and smoke. It is a moment that has become part of the brand's history: a cigar from Estelí earning its place on one of the most notable stages in the world.

But the meaning of the Green Room has long since traveled beyond Washington.

"The stories of the Green Room had been told through history and diplomacy many times, but for us the real meaning is much simpler," said Juan Martínez, Executive President of Joya de Nicaragua. "A cigar has the unique ability to bring people together and make everyone equal for a moment. It doesn't matter where you come from or what title you hold. Every smoker eventually creates his own Green Room, whether it's a quiet porch, a favorite chair, a local cigar shop, or a gathering with friends, a place where the ritual of a cigar becomes a moment of connection."

Joya de Nicaragua proudly introduces Clásico Original Green Room Selection, a tribute to the Clásico's enduring legacy, and to every Green Room the modern smoker calls his own.

Presented in one of the oldest formats hand-rolled at the Estelí factory since 1968, the 6x54 Diadema features an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper over carefully aged Nicaraguan binder and fillers. The result is a balanced, refined smoke: mild, woody, and creamy, with a delicate structure and subtle pepper on the finish.

Clásico Original Green Room Selection will be released in 20-count boxes with an MSRP of $13.50 per cigar and $270 per box. A total of 1,200 boxes will be produced, with 700 allocated to the U.S. and 500 to international markets. The cigar will debut in New Orleans at the PCA Convention & Trade Show in April 2026 at the SAG Imports booth (#3447), with shipments to retailers scheduled shortly after the show.

CINCO DE CINCO CORONA DOBLE NOW AVAILABLE IN THE US

In 2023, as Joya de Nicaragua celebrated its 55th anniversary, the company introduced Cinco de Cinco. To develop this commemorative blend, our master blenders meticulously reviewed hundreds of blending sheets collected over the years at our factory tours. By analyzing the most frequently selected tobaccos, they created a blend that truly reflects the preferences of our global community of cigar lovers.

The cigar was named Cinco de Cinco — Spanish for “Five out of Five” — as it incorporates the tobaccos that visitors at our factory consistently rated as the very best. In other words, it is a true 5/5 recipe.

Today, Joya de Nicaragua is proud to announce the introduction in the US of Cinco de Cinco Corona Doble (7 x 54), originally a non-US exclusive vitola.

"Retailers and consumers continue to ask for formats that truly showcase the depth of a blend, and the Cinco de Cinco Corona Doble delivers exactly that. This vitola gives smokers the opportunity to experience the blend’s complexity over time, and we’re proud to bring another standout expression of the Cinco de Cinco line to the market." said Joel Fernandez, SAG Imports National Sales Director

Cinco de Cinco is crafted with ultra-vintage tobaccos, featuring a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and fillers, presented in a soft-pressed format. The result is a cigar that is truly a five out of five in profile and complexity: full-bodied with medium strength, delivering deep, rich, earthy character complemented by notes of cocoa and dark chocolate.

Named Cigar of the Year by Cigar Snob Magazine, this award-winning cigar will be available in 10-count boxes with an MSRP of $21.99 per cigar and $219.99 per box. The Cinco de Cinco Corona Doble will be unveiled to U.S. retailers this April at the PCA Convention & Trade Show in New Orleans, with shipments scheduled to begin immediately following the show.

Velero: The Power of Pause, Inspired by the Adriatic

The idea behind Velero was born on the shores of the Adriatic. Its name evokes sailing and the special sense of pause found at sea: slowing down, being present and enjoying the moment.

Handmade in the Dominican Republic, Velero arrives at InterTabac in four expressions: Navegante

Maduro, Horizonte Robusto, Admiral Torpedo and Marinero Toro - created for those who, like us, appreciate The Power of Pause.

"A pause is not time lost; it is time fully experienced. The Adriatic and the rhythm of sailing provided the natural inspiration for Velero. We look forward to presenting its four expressions in Dortmund."

- Aleks Djuretic, Velero Brand Owner
