Forged from backgrounds built upon baseball and firefighting, Jake Wyatt Cigar Co. has turned the past six years of cigar blending and manufacturing into a very unique cigar-smoking experience.
Boutique and always built with visual appeal in mind, this brand takes a very different approach to wrapping and packaging cigars. While the classic barber pole look remains the most widely utilized form of multi-wrapper cigar production, there is no rule that a cigar has to rock this design every time.
Instead, Jake Wyatt places circular rings, dots, corkscrews, and multi-colored feet and caps on its cigars. Semi-closed feet, extra-long flag caps, and the use of green candela wrappers are all part of the package, and that's just the beginning.
Those who prefer to buy their stogies by the box will discover that the entire core line of Jake Wyatt cigars consists of 22 sticks per box. According to the company's website, this is done to signify "...the lineage of three generations of baseball players wearing jersey number 22."
After getting the history behind the company's formation and growth, Jake Wyatt's founder, Neil Garcia, walked us through a portion of the product catalog at PCA 2024. Of which we started stocking the five blends listed below, with the goal of offering something for everyone here at Klaro.
Jake Wyatt Appendix II
[Buy 5-Pack]
Light, but far from being bland, Appendix II is a vanilla and oak-soaked Ecuadorian-grown Connecticut with touches of orange, baking spice, vanilla, honey, and sweet cream. A languid, lush dream of a cigar for those who favor a milder smoking experience.
Jake Wyatt Lucid Interval
[Buy 5-Pack]
Lucid Interval creates clouds of creamy, buttery smoke with a glorious green tea touch courtesy of Klaro's first full-time candela wrapper. Touches of pepper can also be detected, along with a dried cedar note that leaves you coming back for more. This is a truly unique cigar that is surprisingly complex and multi-faceted in its appeal.
Jake Wyatt Fourth Dimension
[Buy 5-Pack]
Brazenly finished with a flag cap (or a parejo cap if that's your thing), the Fourth Dimension blends tangy, herbal candela grassiness with a zesty habano rosado wrapper for added depth.
A Dominican puro to its core, and rocking the brand's two-tone wrapper approach to rolling, this blend simultaneously offers smooth and bold flavors throughout and a medium-full-bodied finish. Available in both a flag-capped figurado and a traditional toro vitola, flavors of roasted almonds, cocoa, chestnut, and heavy cream come pouring forth from this wild blend.
Jake Wyatt Icarus
[Buy 5-Pack]
Leather, molasses, and a whiff of mesquite smoke can all be found within Icarus, a bold specialty cigar that is finished with Tennessee fire-cured tobacco. Packed with wooden earthy notes, spices, mild coffee, cedar, and attitude, this blend comes locked and loaded for those who prefer a bolder smoke.
Jake Wyatt Herbert Spencer
[Buy 5-Pack]
For fans of dark cigars that aren't too heavy, the Mexican maduro known as Herbert Spencer provides a wonderful medium-bodied chocolate and roasted nut flavors. Rolled with an extra-aged San Andrés maduro wrapper and a medium-full Dominican filler concoction, Jake Wyatt's best-seller is a dark cigar that walks a line between mellow and extremely flavorful.
