Playboy and Kingmakers announce the launch of the Playboy Cigar Collection, debuting Winter 2025. Years in the making, this collaboration reaffirms Playboy’s enduring status as a cultural and lifestyle icon, marking the next chapter in its legacy of sophisticated tastes and experiences.
The first iteration in this collection will be a 6×54 Toro Crafted in Estelí with a golden Ecuadorian Habano Criollo wrapper and aged Nicaraguan filler and binder. The company notes, the blend delivers notes of cedar, espresso, and a subtle sweetness. Medium-bodied yet layered, it is designed for modern palates while evoking the timeless elegance that defined the golden age of Playboy. Produced in small-batch quantities, each cigar is a rare invitation into the rebirth of the brand.
Claudio Torres, Co-Founder and COO of Kingmakers said:
“For Kingmakers, the collaboration is a natural alignment. Playboy shaped an era where culture, style, and indulgence intertwined. Our goal was to honor that heritage while crafting something distinctly modern. The result is a cigar that resonates with legacy while speaking to today’s discerning audience.”
The cigar line launches alongside the reintroduction of Playboy magazine, further solidifying Playboy’s invigorated identity and its pursuit of cultural relevance in today’s luxury space. To celebrate its debut, the Playboy Cigar Collection will embark on a curated national tour, appearing at a selection of the country’s most exclusive supper clubs, private lounges, and premier lifestyle events to offer discerning guests an immersive experience of the modern Playboy ethos.
The 10-count limited edition boxes will retail $120 a box or $12 a unit MSRP. The cigars will be sold on site in retailers nationwide as well as online at www.cigars.com and www.kingmakerscigars.com/playboy
