Swinger Cigar Company partners with Antillian Cigars for distribution

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

September 26, 2014

Swinger Cigar Company is proud to announce that they have agreed to partner exclusively with Antillian Cigars, owned by the Sosa family, for the rights to distribute the Swinger Cigar Company line. This distribution partnership allows Swinger Cigar Company to offer its retail partners an easier, faster way to order Swinger Cigar products. Antillian Cigar’s distribution is nation wide and this allows Swinger Cigar Company a wider distribution network. In addition, it also allows for faster shipping to the retailer’s locations.

Swinger Cigar Company, a new brand of cigars,was only months old when it was announced that the Torano Cigar Company was being sold to General Cigars. Swinger Cigar Company formally had an agreement with Torano Cigars to ship Swinger Cigars. The sale of the Torano cigar brands to General Cigars ended that agreement and the Swinger Cigar Company was given two weeks to move their cigars out of the newly acquired Torano warehouse.

Sam Leccia, owner of Leccia Tobacco, also needed to make other shipping arrangements due to the sale of Torano brands.

The Swinger Cigar Company line currently includes the Front 9, which has a mild Connecticut shade wrapper with Dominican and Ecuadorian binders and fillers. It’s mild and mellow flavors are perfect for a morning smoke on the links and the Back 9, which has a Brazilian Corojo wrapper with Dominican and Ecuadorian fillers and binder. The Back 9 has been blended to compliment the Front 9. Both blends are available in three vitolas:

  • Par 3  (5 1/2 x 52)
  • Par 4  ( 6 x 60)
  • Par 5  (7 x 54)
