Founders Cigar Company is Honouring a Veteran from the American Revolutionary War

Founders Cigar Company, a veteran owned cigar brand, is honouring a veteran from the American Revolutionary War, founding father and co-writer of the constitution Alexander Hamilton with a new cigar. Hamilton was also the first secretary of the treasury of the USA. The cigar is candela wrapped, as a nod to the green of the American currency.

“Founders has always made decisions as a company based on our primary goal of encouraging and building community,” says Angelo Fraboni, co-founder of Founders Cigar Co., “After looking into the history of Candela cigars and seeing that they used to be one of the most popular blends in America, we knew we wanted to add it to our line-up. The interesting thing about Hamilton is that he was the chief architect of the American financial and banking system. Naming our green cigar after the man greatly influential for our ‘greenback’ system seemed only fitting!”

The cigar is made in the Dominican Republic as MJ Frias Cigar SRL in Tamboril. The wrapper is a Candela from Ecuador. The binder also comes from Ecuador with filler from the Dominican Republic, Honduras and Nicaragua. The cigars are available in a 5×50 Robusto and 6×52 Toro in 20 count boxes and 25 count bundles.
