J.C. Newman Cigar Co. launches Diamond Crown Tampa


This week, J.C. Newman Cigar Co. launched Diamond Crown Tampa at the Diamond Crown Cigar Lounge at Corona Cigar Co. in Tampa, Florida. The event took place on Tuesday, which marked the 138th birthday of the City of Tampa. In celebration, Eric, Bobby, and Drew Newman, along with Jeff and Tanya Borysiewicz, hosted a party featuring Diamond Crown Tampa cigars and a birthday cake designed as an edible replica of the cigar box.

Diamond Crown Tampa is the first cigar rolled by Tabacalera A. Fuente with Florida Sun Grown tobacco grown by the Borysiewiczes in Clermont, Florida. It is a 6.5 x 52 Toro with a Connecticut Shade wrapper, and binder and filler tobaccos from the Dominican Republic and Florida. The suggested retail price is $30 per cigar.


Tampa was built by the cigar industry, and Diamond Crown Tampa pays tribute to the city’s legacy as Cigar City. The packaging features many of Tampa’s famous landmarks, including the Tampa Theatre, Plant Hall, Bayshore Boulevard, the Jose Gasparilla pirate ship, and J.C. Newman’s iconic El Reloj cigar factory.

Diamond Crown Tampa is available at Corona Cigar Co. locations in Tampa, Orlando, and Sarasota, the J.C. Newman Factory Store in the Ybor City historic cigar district, and at Visit Tampa Bay’s retail store in Downtown Tampa.
