The new Dissident cigar brand is officially relaunching next week at IPCPR. The brand is being resurrected by owner of Benjamin Holt with the cigars being now rolled at Fabrica Oveja Negra in Esteli, Nicaragua. The brand was originally launched in 2013 with those same core lines, but with different blends and artwork.
Dissident had scheduled HOME 2020 to ship next month, but due to the Coronavirus COVID-19, they are shipping a partial allocation of them a month early. This early release is to support retail partners.
Benjamin Holt announced today that he purchased Dissident Cigars and will be releasing the cigars in the very near future. Holt has been in the cigar industry for the last 5 years starting off jobs in retail at TJ’s Cigar Lounge in McGregor, Texas. Most recently, starting in 2015 he began at Black Label Trading Co. as a sales representative.
