| THE EVOLUTION OF JOHN T'S CIGARS |
Note: In the 1980's, and even until the mid to late
1990's, flavored cigars were considered by
virtually everyone in the cigar industry to be
"taboo". The concept of a 100% hand-rolled pipe
tobacco cigar was unthinkable for most in the
industry. Traditional tobacco shops and hard-core
cigar smokers believed that flavored cigars had no
place in their shops, and belonged in liquor stores
only. The words "premium" and "flavored" had no
business being paired in the same sentence as
"cigar".... my, how times have changed!!!!
1985- Increased demand for John T's Pipe Tobacco
Cigars results in the addition of more cigar rollers.
After teaming up with a master Cuban cigar roller
in Miami's famous "Little Havana", the John T's
Cigar concept continues to grow and thrive. For
the next 18 years, under the tutelage and
stewardship of our master roller, "Mister P", John
T's Cigars steadily gain in nationwide recognition
and popularity.
1988- John T's Cigars rolls the dice and spends
every penny on a single ad in Playboy Magazine. It
pays off, earning John T's Cigars customers
worldwide.

1994- Yet again, increased demand for John T's
Cigars forces the addition of more rollers and
after 64 years of rolling cigars, "Mister P"
retires. production of the Crowdpleaser Cigar is
moved from Miami to the Dominican Republic.
Under the strict guidance of Don Manuel, John T's
Cigars are still being hand rolled in Santiago, DR
2004- John T's Cigars launches its newest
flavored cigar, the John T's Sweet T's. This
premium, hand-rolled cigar is the "Sweet" sister
to the Crowdpleaser Cigar. Still a 100%
hand-rolled premium pipe tobacco cigar, the John
T's Sweet T's differ from the Crowdpleaser in that
the head of the cigar is dipped in a mixture of
honey and rum, giving it a significantly sweeter
flavor to compliment it's "Crowdpleasing" aroma.
John T's Sweet T's cigars are the only flavored
cigars on the market to offer the sensational,
exclusive flavors of Peach Whiskey, Strawberry
Daquiri, Rum Cola, and Chocolate Mint Martini.
