Joya de Nicaragua have announced the return of the Clásico Original to the US market, initially as an exclusive for Club de Amigos, a community of JDN’s elite retailers. The Joya de Nicaragua Clásico Original holds the distinction of being the oldest Nicaraguan cigar, born from the country’s first cigar factory. During the Nixon era, it became the official cigar of the White House, serving as a premium alternative to the increasingly scarce Cuban cigars. It remains Joya de Nicaragua’s global best-seller.

“Considering the legacy of the Clásico Original and its popularity in America since the 70s and 80s, we’ve decided to open up its sales to all US retailers,” says Juan Martinez, Executive President. “This cigar has always belonged to the people. It’s no longer just about our history; it’s about the memories it has created for cigar lovers over the years.”
