The American
The American was the first cigar brand rolled in the historic El Reloj factory when it opened in Ybor City in 1910. In 2016, The American was reintroduced by fourth-generation owner, Drew Newman, as a 100% American cigar, once again hand rolled at El Reloj. From the cigar molds to the heirloom tobacco inside, every part of this cigar is proudly grown and sourced in the United States, paying tribute to America’s centuries-old cigar making tradition.
The American
The American is a medium-bodied American puro. Every part of this cigar is proudly grown and sourced in the United States, from the tobacco inside to the hinges on the box. A Florida Sun Grown wrapper surrounds a carefully aged blend of Connecticut and Pennsylvania tobaccos, delivering a distinctive, earthy flavor.
