Introducing Stoic Cigars—a premium, hand-rolled cigar line that marries exceptional craftsmanship with the timeless virtues of ancient philosophy. Founded by Vance Taylor and meticulously crafted at Klaas Kelner’s renowned factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic, each Stoic cigar is a testament to quality and introspection.
Stoic Cigars draws inspiration from the four cardinal virtues of Stoicism: Courage, Justice, Wisdom, and Moderation. Each vitola embodies one of these principles, offering a smoking experience that resonates with both the palate and the spirit. The blend features an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper and binder, enveloping a diverse filler combination from the Dominican Republic, the U.S., and an undisclosed South American country.
Courage (5 x 50) – A robust Robusto that delivers a bold yet balanced profile.
Justice (6 x 52) – A classic Toro offering a harmonious blend of strength and complexity.
Wisdom (7 x 48) – A refined Churchill that provides a contemplative, extended smoking experience.
Moderation (5.5 x 46) – A nuanced Corona Gorda, perfect for those seeking a measured and flavorful smoke.
Each cigar is adorned with a band featuring symbols representing its respective virtue, and includes a QR code linking to deeper insights about the blend and its philosophical inspiration.
Under the guidance of Klaas Kelner, known for his obsessive attention to quality, Stoic Cigars are produced using seven distinct tobaccos from four different countries. This intricate blend challenges conventional expectations of Dominican cigars, delivering a unique and sophisticated smoking experience.
"Stoic Cigars is more than just a premium product; it’s a symbol of self-improvement and personal empowerment," says founder Vance Taylor. "By integrating the principles of mindfulness and self-reflection with the craftsmanship and culture of premium, hand-rolled cigars, we’re creating an experience that resonates with both the palate and the spirit."
Launched on November 16, 2024, at Summit Cigar Company in Akron, Ohio, Stoic Cigars are available in cabinet-style boxes of 20. The initial release is limited to 750 boxes.
