Jonathan Drew Sann and Drew Estate Announce New Partnership: “J.SANN & SON Manufacturer andTobacconist
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
J.SANN & SON Announces New Generational Cigar Culture Center in Wynwood, Florida
Miami, FL – J.SANN & SON, a first-of-its-kind cigar culture destination, will open in Spring 2026 in the heart of the Wynwood Art District. Housed under one 7,200 square foot roof at 359 NW 28th Street, Miami, Florida, 33127, the venue will unite a family cigar factory and brand, a world-class cigar bar, a live music venue, and a full kitchen supper club.
J.SANN & SON represents the next chapter in the story of founder Jonathan Drew Sann, marking a new evolution within Drew Estate. Built as a generational establishment, the concept was inspired by the birth of Jonathan’s son and reflects a deeper relationship between Drew Estate and its founder.
“Every iconic brand has an origin story,” says Sann. “Ours is built upon family, loyalty, and purpose. It’s a beautiful founder-forward story, as the culmination of thirty years building Drew Estate matures into the generational ritual of the passing of the torch with the birth of my son, Jonathan Drew Sann II (JD2).”
Drew Estate CEO Glenn Wolfson shared his excitement about the announcement:
“I am extraordinarily excited and proud of this new venture, which is a direct result of the mutual loyalty between Drew Estate and Jonathan and begins a new chapter in our collective commitment to innovating for consumers.”
Capable of producing just 500 handmade cigars per day, the J.SANN & SON family factory will serve as an innovative and creative home base for Sann and as a hub for partnerships with cigar industry friends, brands, and companies. Located just four blocks from Jonathan’s home, the factory ensures his continuous immersion in all aspects of J.SANN & SON’s cigar culture center.
“It feels like when I first opened the Drew Estate factory in Nicaragua, sleeping on the factory floor, making ends meet, but staying focused on the larger vision,” said Jonathan Drew Sann. “This is truly a full-circle moment.”
The J.SANN & SON venue will open in Spring 2026, while the family factory and website will become operational later in 2026. Family factory brands will be available for purchase in person at the Wynwood location and online at www.jsannandson.com.
Due to the limited production capacity of 500 cigars per day, Drew Estate plans to distribute J.SANN & SON manufactured brands on an extremely exclusive basis.
In addition to its own brands, J.SANN & SON will offer a curated selection of cigars both in-store and online from the world’s most respected cigar brands, boutique manufacturers, and new discoveries. The selection reflects brands with deep personal meaning to Jonathan Drew Sann, serving as a snapshot of cigars that define celebration in the modern marketplace.
The J.SANN & SON bar and kitchen will feature a world-class menu led by Chef Julia Ning, whose 20-year culinary career includes serving as Chef de Cuisine at the Michelin-starred Goosefoot in Chicago and at the James Beard Award–winning Kong River House in Miami. Chef Ning promises a culinary perspective unlike anything previously seen in a cigar-centric venue.
The venue will also host immersive brand experiences, live music, and experiential evenings designed to foster community and welcome cigar enthusiasts from all walks of life. Live performances at J.SANN & SON will celebrate brand stories and share the most raw and impactful moments from founders’ journeys.
Reflecting on the future, Jonathan Drew Sann added:
“I will continue to serve as President and Chief Innovation Officer of Drew Estate. J.SANN & SON is not a goodbye, it is a continuation of a beautiful story that began thirty years ago. At the end of the day, J.SANN & SON is a cigar culture center unlike anything that exists on the planet. I want to rekindle the feeling of our opening in Nicaragua, but here in the United States where it is accessible to all cigar lovers. I hope you all can join us.”
J.SANN & SON plans to open in Spring 2026.
