    “Don’t get all uppity by the spelling of “Caeser” – in this instance, the name comes from Julius Caeser Newman, the founder of J.C. Newman cigars. This cigar was created to celebrate the company’s 115th anniversary and to honor the founding father’s 135th birthday. Newman started out humbly rolling cigars in Cleveland, and the company now operates out of Tampa, with third generation Newmans running the show.”

    If that’s true, then can you ‘splain why there’s a picture of Julius Caesar on the band of the cigar??? 😜🤓😜

    I heard Bobby Newman tell this story once. JC Newman was named after Julius Caesar, and JC Newman's parents, his father I think, simply spelled his name wrong.

    @ScotchnSmoke sux lots of large wéiners. And tons of small ones.
