Apparently, the Tobacconist of Greenwich cigar store/lounge in Connecticut is having an event on June 10th which includes six exclusive releases from six New World Manufacturers...

Tobacconist of Greenwich Lands Exclusive Foundation, LFD & Padrón

On June 10, Tobacconist of Greenwich is hosting an event called “Titans of Tobacco,” featuring six, or seven, noted cigar personalities. As part of the event, each person is bringing special cigars, most of which will be an exclusive vitola of an existing line.

So far, three have been announced.

I have ‘taken the bait’ and gambled on these. I reserved a box of Padrón, box of Kelner, and a 12 cigar sampler. Hoping they are great, especially at that cost!

CT is supposed to have low tobacco taxes compared to the rest of New England. Lower retail prices are what they promote.

OpusX 25 Toro Heading to Tobacconist of Greenwich

June 7, 2026 - Charlie Minato

On Wednesday, Tobacconist of Greenwich will hold Titans of Tobacco, a unique multi-vendor event featuring principals from six different family-owned cigar companies, each of which is bringing an exclusive cigar to the event.

The final cigar, Arturo Fuente’s entry, has been announced as an OpusX 25 Toro, specifically, a soft-pressed 6 x 52 toro. This is neither the first OpusX 25 Toro nor the first one to go to the Greenwich, Conn. retailer. Last fall, the store released a round toro as part of an annual Arturo Fuente event. Neither OpusX 25 toro is part of Arturo Fuente’s regular production price list.

It’s a classy cigar shop. I’ve enjoyed some of their rare finds in years past. 

I was out east for work a few weeks back and dropped in to grab a few cigars and to see the place in person. The owner was in - very polite guy, sharply dressed. I complimented him on the shop and he said “we get to do some cool s**t”.  They’ve been marketing these heavily via email. Tempted to take the bait on the sampler.  

Grabbed a box of their Padron Rare Finds “A Hammer and a Dream - Natural” earlier this year - excellent cigar.

I grabbed those Natty Padrons as well...a great Non-Cuban cigar to be sure.

Update - received the invite email for the Titans event, made the mistake of reading “when they are gone, they are gone” - triggered my FOMO red alert with a mere 7 words: 12 count sampler ordered (2 of each). It’ll scratch the itch while allowing me to tell myself I exhibited modest restraint.
