Brick House is a celebrated Nicaraguan cigar line, expertly crafted by the renowned J.C. Newman Cigar Company to deliver outstanding value, complexity, and consistency. Originally launched in 1937 and revitalized in 2009 as an homage to founder Julius Caeser Newman’s childhood home in Hungary, Brick House is known for providing robust flavors and top-notch construction that appeal to both new smokers and seasoned aficionados.
The line features a hearty blend of aged Nicaraguan long-fillers and binder leaves, elegantly finished with your choice of a dark Ecuadorian Havana Subido wrapper or, in the Maduro version, a Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper. Each cigar is rolled by master artisans in Nicaragua’s PENSA factory, resulting in a slow, even burn and satisfying aroma.
The classic Brick House blend is medium-bodied, offering layers of mesquite, cedar, hickory, leather, and pepper, while subtle notes of fig, nuts, and a faint sweetness round out the profile. The Maduro delivers a richer, spicier, full-bodied experience with increased sweetness and pronounced flavors of cocoa, caramel, and chocolate. Construction is uniformly excellent, with an even draw and sturdy ash in every vitola.
Praised for both its quality and accessibility, Brick House has repeatedly earned critical acclaim, including high-ratings and placements among top value cigars, making it a smart addition to any humidor.

Brickhouse original is one of the new world cigars that really taste like a cuban! Many brands say this but normally they’re not even close. But this cigar got it right! For its price i’d recommend it to anyone. For its taste i’d recommend it to everyone! Honesty, can’t go wrong with this one!
