The storied Remington arms company is an iconic American brand. So.... how'd they get into cigars you ask? A few years back, Remington declared bankruptcy. Being light on his feet, the opportunistic sharpster Kaizad Hansotia, Gurkha's owner, promptly registered the trademark Remington for cigars. Remington subsequently reorganized and found a new owner, and they found out about the trademark and said WTF, bro? (taking some creative license.... but c'mon that HAD to be the exact reaction). After some shucking and jiving, they worked out a deal that avoided litigation. It wound up like this - Kaizad and Gurkha would broker the production of the cigars and Remington would sell them. So they made a quarter million cigars, in a Connecticut version and Habano version, all long-filler out of the Dominican Republic and all great looking to boot. Well, the cigar business is peculiar and Remington is a large co with other fish to fry, and I'm guessing this just got lost in the fog of accounting. I'm not even sure they ever attempted to sell even one of them. Flash forward a few years and the folks at Remington came calling, asking if we want to buy them all out of the factory. After some back and forth and burning a bunch we made a deal, and your pals at Cigar Page are the proud new owners of the entire lot. Of course we're turning them to you for a song

Remington Habano- The Remington Habano brings an easy draw with copious spice and signature Dominican notes of earth, cream, and coffee.
