J.C. Newman Cigar Co. is introducing Brick House Beginnings Ciento Por Ciento as its 2026 exclusive for retail members of the Tobacconists’ Association of America. The limited release is scheduled to begin shipping during the week of Oct. 26.
Handcrafted at the company’s PENSA factory in Estelí, Brick House Beginnings Ciento Por Ciento is made entirely with Nicaraguan tobacco. The wrapper is a Habana-seed leaf grown in the Jalapa Valley, while the binder and filler tobaccos come from three mountainous growing regions in Nicaragua.
The cigars have been aged for five years. J.C. Newman describes Beginnings as an occasional series built around well-aged Brick House cigars.
Production is limited to 800 boxes of 10 cigars, or 8,000 cigars total. Suggested retail pricing is $12 per cigar. The company did not disclose the size of the 2026 release.
“Brick House is one of my great-grandfather’s original cigar brands,” said Drew Newman, fourth-generation owner of J.C. Newman. “First rolled in 1937, Brick House honors the home where my great-grandfather was born in 1875. As it was the only house in the village built from brick, the home was known as ‘the brick house.’”
Brick House Beginnings Ciento Por Ciento will be available exclusively through participating TAA-member retailers in the United States.
