This week, J.C. Newman Cigar Co. launched Diamond Crown Tampa at the Diamond Crown Cigar Lounge at Corona Cigar Co. in Tampa, Florida. Tuesday was the 138th birthday of the City of Tampa. In celebration, Eric, Bobby, and Drew Newman and Jeff and Tanya Borysiewicz hosted a party featuring Diamond Crown Tampa cigars and a birthday cake that was an edible replica of the Diamond Crown Tampa cigar box.
Diamond Crown Tampa is the first cigar rolled by Tabacalera A. Fuente with Florida Sun Grown tobacco grown by the Borysiewiczes in Clermont, Florida. It is a 6.5 x 52 Toro with a Connecticut Shade wrapper, binder and filler tobaccos from the Dominican Republic and Florida, and a suggested retail price of $30.
Tampa was built by the cigar industry and Diamond Crown Tampa pays tribute to Tampa’s legacy as Cigar City. Diamond Crown Tampa’s packaging features many of Tampa’s famous landmarks, including the Tampa Theatre, Plant Hall, Bayshore Boulevard, the Jose Gasparilla pirate ship, and J.C. Newman’s iconic El Reloj cigar factory.
Diamond Crown Tampa is available at Corona Cigar Co. locations in Tampa, Orlando, and Sarasota, the J.C. Newman Factory Store in the Ybor City historic cigar district, and at Visit Tampa Bay’s store in Downtown Tampa.
