Introducing a new blend to the tobacco industry

February 2017 – Bringing together the best of both worlds, Ventura Cigar Company (VCC) is pleased to announce that renowned pipe and pipe tobacco brands, 4th Generation and Comoy’s of London will now be available under the VCC umbrella. Introducing new efficiencies for sales and distribution, the partnership aims to organically expand the reach of each respective category to new audiences.

The Ventura Cigar Company has long-enjoyed a solid reputation for high-quality products, being the entity behind such favorites as the artfully crafted Case Study, the smooth PSyKo Seven line, and the ultra-premium Archetype collection. VCC brings their expertise, sales network, and fan base to the partnership, inspiring current tobacconists and cigar aficionados to expand their palates for the 4th Generation and Comoy’s of London products now being sold in conjunction with VCC.

“Ventura Cigar Company, 4th Generation, and Comoy’s of London are all brands known for their quality and overall excellence,” says Barry Bennett, National Sales Manager for VCC. “My sales team is excited to be the ambassadors of the new arrangement, offering our retailers a wider range of products for their customers- especially ones steeped in the tradition of multiple generations.”

4th Generation and Comoy’s of London have grown and flourished under the distinguished leadership of Erik Stokkebye, who lends a covetable authenticity to the brands with his family heritage in the pipe tobacco business. Over the years, he, too, has built a strong reputation for high quality pipe tobacco blends and classic pipes that speak both to connoisseurs and those new to the time-honored tradition. The partnership between 4th Generation, Comoy’s of London, and VCC will lend Erik Stokkebye’s expertise to both industries, and offer a full range of tobacco products easily available to all customers.

“My family heritage has taught me to strive for excellence, and always produce the best products on the market,” says Erik Stokkebye. “Officially teaming up with the Ventura Cigar Company is a natural fit for both our industries. We share the same values of producing high-quality products, and now can enjoy a well-rounded distribution channel that will really benefit all of our customers- from the retailers to the end-user.”

With a full range of products geared toward a variety of tobacconists, the partnership between the Ventura Cigar Company, 4th Generation, and Comoy’s of London is truly the perfect blend.
