Cigar News: Fireball Cinnamon Cigars Burst Onto Market

Attention Ladies and Gentleman, Fireball® is about to hit the cigar category.

The new Fireball cigars with a fiery hot cinnamon flavor inspired by Fireball Cinnamon Whisky will launch with two convenient sizes.

Developed in partnership with Fireball Whisky, the Fireball flavored cigars are made in the Dominican Republic with a mellow blend of tobaccos that includes an Indonesian wrapper, a Dominican binder and Dominican filler tobaccos. A proprietary flavoring process imparts every draw with the sweet heat of spicy cinnamon.

Fireball cigars will be a full-time offering available in a cigarillo and a corona size, presented in tins and packs featuring the iconic, fire-breathing dragon and red, gold and black branding elements of the globally-popular spirit. The smokes will debut at Thompson Cigar and ultimately available at Cigars International (online and retail), Cigar.com, and other popular online and brick & mortar retailers. National wholesale distribution of Fireball flavored cigars will be handled through Meier & Dutch. The cigars are available now for pre-order, and will ship in mid-June.

Kevin Irvine, product coordinator of Scandinavian Tobacco Group’s (STG) Online and Retail division said;

“Fireball is one of the most celebratory and sought-after spirits on the market and we’re proud to bring that unmistakable experience to life for our customers. For us, Fireball speaks to disrupting the market with a cigar that’s totally fun and unexpected and we’re confident this new line will be an instant hit.”
