Crowned Heads and ACE Prime will no longer be working together. Neither company has given an official reason why, but both have claimed they originated the termination.
The future of Crowned Heads lines produced at ACE Prime's factory, Tabacalera Pichardo, such as Mil Dias, CHC Serie E, and Juarez is unclear.
Crowned Heads released this official statement:
Crowned Heads has announced that it is terminating their exclusive distribution agreement with ACE Prime Cigars effective November 1, 2022.
From the date of this release until November 1, Crowned Heads will retain the exclusive rights to distribute all ACE Prime brands. Crowned Heads is currently working with Eradio Pichardo and Luciano Meirelles, the owners of ACE Prime, to facilitate as smooth a transition as possible. Crowned Heads will continue to fulfill ACE Prime brand orders for their retail partners until the termination date.
It is anticipated that ACE Prime Cigars will issue its own press release with further details towards their plans for distribution to begin after November 1.
No official statement from ACE Prime has been released, but it will be added to this article if it becomes available.
