December 9, 2025 - Charlie Minato

Add JRE Tobacco Co. to the list of companies making cigars for the Chinese zodiac calendar.

For the first time in its history, the company has created a cigar that honors the symbol on the Chinese zodiac calendar. The Aladino Year of the Horse 2026 Limited Edition is a 6 x 54 torpedo that is made of Honduran tobaccos grown by the Eiroa family.

Each cigar has an MSRP of $19.40, which works out to $388 for a box of 20. Production is limited to 600 boxes of 20 cigars. The cigar is already on sale in Asia via TimeCigar. JRE says it is an Asian exclusive and will not be sold in the U.S.

Chinese New Year takes place on Feb. 17, 2026, which will ring in the year of the horse. Justo Eiroa, founder of JRE Tobacco Co., is a horse. The company says that 正, a Chinese word for just, appears on the packaging.

Baccarat, Davidoff, Elie Bleu, JRE Tobacco Co., La Galera, Maya Selva, Oliva, Plasencia, S.T. Dupont, VegaFina and Villiger have announced Year of the Horse-themed products. Other companies are likely to announce new Year of the Horse products ahead of Chinese New Year, which takes place on Feb. 17, 2026.
