The Tobacconists’ Association of America donated $19,625 to the Premium Cigar Association from royalties on its 2025 Exclusive Series. Most cigars in the 2026 Exclusive Series lineup are now shipping to TAA retailers.
The 2026 lineup includes cigars from Casa Carrillo, C.L.E., Espinosa, Gurkha, J.C. Newman, Joya de Nicaragua, Kristoff, La Flor Dominicana, Rocky Patel, STG, Tatuaje and Villiger. The cigars are available only at TAA retailers.
“Each year, our great manufacturing partners make cigars exclusively for our organization,” Harris Saunders IV, chair of the TAA Exclusive Series Committee, said in a press release. “We have done well with the program, and we want to give back by sharing a portion of the royalties with the associations fighting for our industry and for TAA retailers.”
