(Tampa, FL) - In honor of Stanford Newman's 90th Birthday, the J.C. Newman Cigar Company announces the limited production release of Stanford's 90th Diamond Crown MAXIMUS. These cigars honor the cigar industry legend Stanford Newman, who is one of only six members in the Cigar Aficionado's Cigar Hall of Fame.
Carlos Fuente, Jr. has created a very unique cigar - the first Diamond Crown MAXIMUS ever made with a Cameroon wrapper. "As a tribute to Stanford, I wanted to make an exceptionally flavorful cigar for this celebration," says Carlito.
To achieve this unique taste, he blended some of his oldest Dominican filler tobaccos, which he had been saving for such a special occasion, with tobacco from his prized Chateau de la Fuente farm. When combined with a top grade of specially selected Cameroon wrapper, Stanford's 90th Diamond Crown MAXIMUS may be the richest, most flavorful Cameroon cigar ever made.
In addition to this milestone cigar, Stanford's 90th Maximus comes in a luxurious leather box. This box is made of a tan leather with the brilliant Diamond Crown MAXIMUS logo prominently displayed on the inside lid of the box. These cigars are extremely limited and there only 850 available worldwide.
J.C. Newman Cigar Co., founded in 1895 by J.C. Newman and now headquartered in Tampa, Florida, represents 110 years of family tradition in quality cigar manufacturing. J.C. Newman Company's Cuesta-Rey cigars rank among the top-selling brands in the imported handmade cigar market. The Newman family is also partners with the Carlos Fuente family in Fuente & Newman Premium Cigars Limited Inc., the exclusive U.S. distributor of the famous Arturo Fuente Premium Handmade cigars.
