We’re Thrilled to Host You as We Celebrate 125 Years
Our grandfather/great-grandfather Julius C. (J.C.) Newman founded J.C. Newman Cigar Co. on May 5, 1895. Four generations later, J.C. Newman Cigar Co. is America’s oldest family-owned premium cigar maker. We proudly handcraft premium cigars today the same way that J.C. did a century ago.
We had planned to celebrate our 125th anniversary in May 2020, but we delayed this event due to the pandemic. On November 19, we invite you to join us in Tampa, Florida for our long-awaited 125th Anniversary celebration and the unveiling of the restoration of our 112-year-old El Reloj Cigar Factory.
Although our historic cigar factory will be open for tours, this celebration will largely be outside in a tented area with room for social distancing. We will follow all COVID-19 safety protocols which are recommended at the time. For the latest information, check back on this website or provide your email address in the box below.
