Southern Draw marked its 10th anniversary in 2024 with a new line, fittingly called Decennium, which is the Latin word for decade. While the company has primarily worked with AJ Fernandez to produce its cigars, this time it enlisted the services of El Titan de Bronze.

The series named for famed American artist—and cigar smoker—LeRoy Neiman received its second installment this summer. While the blend remains the same as the 2023 version, the size and artwork are new for 2024.

In October of 2018, Tatuaje unveiled a new collection of limited, Miami-made Tatuaje cigars called Escasos. The following spring, the Selección de Cazador line—commonly referred to as the Brown Label—would get the Escasos treatment, getting a new wrapper and being rolled in South Florida.

Collaboration releases between General Cigar Co. and the El Titan de Bronze factory in Miami are nothing new, but this line is owned by the factory. The new blend is made with an Ecuadorian habano wrapper covering filler tobaccos from Nicaragua: the binder is grown in the Estelí region while the filler includes tobacco from the Estelí and Jalapa regions.

This is the fourth different vitola for the Don Reynaldo line, which is named after Ronald Gellis, the father of Kyle Gellis, Warped’s founder. Made at the El Titan de Bronze factory in Miami, it has an MSRP of $24 per cigar and is limited to 750 10-count boxes that started shipping to retailers in May.

It’s the fourth release in the only American-made Cohiba line.

Time to find out how six years in a humidor has treated this cigar.

El Oso Grand Papa is the first of one of three different 10th anniversary cigars from Warped. While it’s not Warped’s 10th anniversary, many of the company’s core lines were launched in 2014.

Last year, Tatuaje celebrated its 20th anniversary with a variety of anniversary cigars. This cigar—rolled during its 18th anniversary—is one of them.

The vitola are named for weapons used in the legendary Broadway musical.

In 2023, J.C. Newman released 40 humidors that used wood that was once the Staples Center floor used for the 2011 NBA All-Star Game. Inside of those humidors was an exclusive size of The American, fittingly called the All-Star.
