ROOM101 CIGARS REIGNITES JOHNNY TOBACCONAUT LINE WITH NEW MADURO RELEASE



Room101 Cigars is reigniting one of its most sought-after sub-brands with the introduction of Johnny Tobacconaut Maduro — a highly anticipated return and the next chapter in an episodic story that began in 2015.

Originally released as a limited Unobtanium project, Johnny Tobacconaut quickly built a reputation among collectors and enthusiasts. Now, the brand returns in Maduro form, offering a darker, more developed expression of the original concept.

Built with AJ Fernandez, Johnny Tobacconaut Maduro is a full-bodied Nicaraguan puro, finished with a rich, oily maduro wrapper. The blend delivers bold notes of earth, espresso, and dark cocoa, pushing the profile further while staying true to the character that defined the original release.

Matt Booth, Founder and Creative Director of Room101 Cigars, said: “I was a tremendous disappointment to my mother during my teenage years. I still lament over this period of life well knowing that time was the only medicine to heal our relationship. Time brings lessons nothing else can teach - and in time we have evolved our beloved Johnny Tobacconaut into a sensational maduro variant which I believe is the most appropriate evolutionary step for this series in our evergreen effort to spread this cosmic brand across this beautiful planet of ours.”

Johnny Tobacconaut Maduro will begin shipping to retailers in June 2026 and will be available in three vitolas: Robusto (5 x 50), Toro (6 x 52), and Gordo (6 x 60). The cigars will be offered in 20-count boxes, with suggested retail prices ranging from $10.29 to $12.49 per cigar.
