J.C. Newman Unveils TAA 2021 Exclusive Brick House Beginnings

• Cigars & Leisure March 18, 2021

J.C. Newman Cigar Co. has unearthed a truly rare release that will be available exclusively at retailers that are part of the Tobacconists Association of America (TAA). Brick House Beginnings is J.C. Newman Cigar Co.’s TAA 2021 exclusive and is a cigar the company rediscovered during its recent restoration of El Reloj Cigar Factory in Tampa, Florida.

During J.C. Newman’s much talked about restoration project, the company had a to clear out almost 70 years worth of items from the building. During this process, the company ran across some hidden gems, including the Brick House Beginnings.

Here’s what J.C. Newman Cigar Co. had to say about this release:

“One of those was a trap door from the 1930s with a secret staircase that went from the General Managers’ office down into the basement where he could hide when the Tampa Mafia would come through looking for payroll cash. Another was J.C.’s travel trunk that accompanied him on his voyage from Hungary to Cleveland in 1889. But perhaps the most exciting find for fans of our brands was a stash of 10-year-old Brick House cigars that was tucked away in the basement years ago to age and wait for a special occasion to arise. When we rediscovered them during our 125th year, we thought that sharing them with our TAA retailers would be a perfect fit.

“Fans of Brick House will recognize the flavor of its distinctive blend but will taste some notable differences in this aged version. The many years that have passed since these were rolled have created a smooth and balanced taste that only time has the ability to do. Through the aging process, the flavors have married and created a cigar more mellow and a bit less spicy than its contemporary counterpart. Discover a taste of history and savor this once in a decade Brick House.”

Brick House Beginnings–TAA Exclusive Original Aged Blend will be available in three different sizes: Mighty Mighty Maduro (6 1/4 x 50), Mighty Mighty Natural (6 1/4 x 50), and Churchill Natural (7 1/4 x 50).
