In a world where tradition often dictates the cigar industry, Caldwell Cigar Company has demonstrated breaking the mould, with Caldwell Cigar company's maverick spirit creating a movement that champions innovation, creativity, and rebellion. Founded by Robert Caldwell in 2014, this boutique cigar brand quickly gained a reputation for breaking conventions and delivering bold, memorable experiences to aficionados worldwide. At Robert Graham 1874, where we embrace the unique and the unconventional, Caldwell Cigars are a natural fit for our #RebelSpotlights series.
Robert Caldwell didn’t enter the cigar world to follow rules—he came to rewrite them. With a mission to produce cigars that offer authenticity, showcase rare tobaccos, and with an unorthodox approach to branding, Caldwell Cigar Company is all about challenging norms.
Caldwell’s journey began with a love for cigars and a vision to create something extraordinary. Before founding his eponymous brand, Robert Caldwell worked in the hospitality industry, where his passion for premium cigars flourished. This led him to co-found Wynwood Cigar Factory in Miami, a venture that laid the foundation for his future success. Although Wynwood eventually closed, it provided Caldwell with the experience and determination to strike out on his own.
In 2014, Caldwell launched his brand with the goal of focusing on small-batch production and rare tobaccos. Partnering with the Tabacalera William Ventura factory in the Dominican Republic, Caldwell was able to access unique, aged leaves that gave his cigars their distinct character. Early releases like "Eastern Standard" and "The King is Dead" set the tone for the brand’s bold identity, combining masterful craftsmanship with edgy, artistic flair.
Caldwell’s commitment to sourcing rare and aged tobaccos sets the brand apart. Each blend is a masterpiece, created with meticulous attention to detail. From the Dominican Republic to Nicaragua, Caldwell works with small farms and independent producers to secure unique leaves that yield complex and layered profiles. This dedication to quality ensures every cigar is a conversation starter—and a showstopper.
But it’s not just the blends that grab attention. Caldwell’s bold, artistic branding is unmistakable. With eye-catching names like "Long Live the King," "The King is Dead," and "Blind Man’s Bluff," each cigar comes wrapped in artwork that tells a story. These aren’t just cigars; they’re pieces of art meant to be savoured.
Caldwell’s philosophy of pushing boundaries and celebrating individuality aligns perfectly with the ethos of Robert Graham 1874. We believe in offering products that inspire, ignite passion, and encourage exploration. For those seeking something different, something daring, Caldwell is the ultimate choice.
Caldwell Cigars are no strangers to the discerning cigar aficionado.

At Robert Graham 1874, we’ve seen these cigars fly off the shelves, with certain lines standing out for their bold profiles and exceptional smoking experience. Here’s a rundown of some of the most popular Caldwell cigars that we’re proud to carry.
A top pick for seasoned smokers, Long Live the King delivers exactly what it promises: a royal smoking experience. With a complex blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos wrapped in a silky Ecuadorian Habano leaf, it offers a rich, medium to full-bodied profile. Expect notes of pepper, leather, and earth, with an undeniable smoothness that lingers long after the smoke fades. This one’s for those who want their cigars to make a statement – bold, but refined.
Another fan favourite, The King is Dead is the counterpart to Long Live the King, but with an even deeper flavour. This line features a blend of Nicaraguan, Honduran, and Dominican filler tobaccos, wrapped in a spicy yet smooth Ecuadorian Habano. The result? A beautifully balanced, medium-bodied cigar with hints of dark chocolate, spices, and wood. Ideal for pairing with a good rum or whisky, it’s a versatile smoke that can stand up to your finest drink.
For those who appreciate a more approachable, mellow cigar, Eastern Standard is the way to go. Offering a lighter, creamy profile, this cigar blends Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers with a silky Connecticut Shade wrapper. It's perfect for someone looking for a morning cigar, with delicate notes of toast, cedar, and hints of sweetness. It’s the kind of smoke that’s subtle but always satisfying, making it a fan favourite at our stores.
For those who love a truly luxurious smoke, the Anastasia Caspia offers something extraordinary. A more limited release from Caldwell, this cigar features an impeccable blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers, wrapped in a smooth Ecuadorian Sumatra leaf. The result is a full-bodied yet elegant smoke with rich flavours of earth, spice, and a hint of sweetness. Anastasia Caspia is for the aficionado who wants something with depth, complexity, and a touch of class – a true masterpiece in the Caldwell range.
These standout cigars from Caldwell are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to this innovative brand.
