Brick House: Mighty Mighty Cigars

Product Number: 007-455-0010

A line of cigars from J.C. Newman, Brick House dates to the early 1900s when J.C. introduced a line of Cuban puros made with tobacco from Havana. Named for Newman's childhood home in Hungary — the sole brick house in his town — Brick House cigars represented comfort and family: home. The struggles of the Great Depression, however, saw the end of Brick House cigars as J.C. Newman, like so many other businesses and families, fought to survive the economic drought. Revitalized over 80 years later, Brick House returned to the J.C. Newman portfolio thanks to Julius Caeser's grandsons, and today they're hand-rolled at the Newmans' PENSA factory in Nicaragua.

Brick House cigars feature the same aged, Nicaraguan fillers but are available with three different versions: Habano, Maduro, and Double Connecticut. Offered here is the Habano, with an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper around a Nicaraguan binder, in the 6.25" x 60 Mighty Mighty vitola.

Tastes Like a Fuente

Product: Brick House Mighty Mighty
I wouldn't say it's a bad cigar-it's not. That said, it tasted almost exactly like a Fuente Maduro Chateau Rothschild (one of my favorites) for a few dollars more. It's mild with a good hint of spice and a very sweet citrusesque taste I associate with Dominican tobacco...I frequently found myself wishing it had more chocolate notes I get from other Nicaraguan blends or that I'd just spent my money on a Padron 6000 or anything from Perdomo. I also had several burn issues that I had to keep touching up that did straighten up past the halfway point in the cigar. Overall, well, it's just not for me. Hopefully, I can find something from JC Newman that's better suited to my palette as I always pass the JC Newman factory in Tampa and I think it's kinda cool to smoke a cigar from the oldest American cigar factory. A similar cigar: Illusione Epernay...Read More

This is a surprisingly good cigar at this price. I give it a 4 out of 10 for strength. Very pleasant sweetness. Ok draw.No burning issues. I haven't smoked a cigar this good at triple the price. I'd buy again for sure.
Quality Change?

Previously my favorite. Either my tastes changed, or the quality of the cigars have diminished. These are now harsh, dry and lacking depth of flavor that they used to have. Even placed in a humidor and "brought back to life" they are but a shadow of their former self.

Can no longer recommend.
Oliva Flor de Oliva is a much better alternative if you enjoy a smooth, medum-bodied smoke with good flavor....Read More
