About this cigar
Ted's Other Cigars has earned its cult following by refusing convention, and the Rhum is no exception. This 650 ring gauge robusto pairs a Dominican and Nicaraguan long-filler blend with an aged Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper that delivers unexpected sweetness. The "Rhum" designation signals the profile: cocoa, subtle caramel notes, and the kind of creamy warmth that suggests barrel-aged spirits without ever tasting muddled or gimmicky. What sets this cigar apart is its balance between heft and refinement. At 650, you're holding something substantial, but Ted's blend resists heaviness. Instead, you get a smooth, evolving smoke with hints of leather, dark chocolate, and just enough spice on the finish to keep things interesting across a 60-minute session. The construction is impeccable, which matters when you're moving volume. For your lounge or retail counter, the Rhum bridges two customer types: the explorer looking beyond mainstream brands and the traditionalist who appreciates a well-made maduro. Order by the box, and you're stocking a cigar that moves without requiring constant hand-selling. It's the kind of offering that builds repeat business.
