Hiram & Solomon announces the return of the Ashlar
Hiram & Solomon Cigars is proud to announce the return of Ashlar Cigar, the company’s commemorative release created to mark the 10th anniversary of Hiram & Solomon Cigars.
Originally introduced at the PCA Trade Show 2025 in New Orleans, Ashlar was conceived as a symbol of craftsmanship, reflection, and the values that have shaped the company over the past decade.
Shortly after its introduction, production was unexpectedly halted following the tragic passing of the master torcedor who had been solely responsible for rolling this unique cigar.
In the months that followed, Hiram & Solomon made the decision to pause production rather than compromise the integrity of the cigar. A new torcedor was carefully trained under close supervision to master the delicate wrapper and replicate the precise construction that defines Ashlar.
With production now complete, Ashlar will begin shipping in priority sequence to partners who supported the release early on.
About Hiram & Solomon Cigars: Hiram & Solomon Cigars is a premium cigar house dedicated to craftsmanship, consistency, and community. The brand partners with respected factories and select distributors to bring a diverse portfolio to retailers and enthusiasts in the United States and internationally.
Against all odds, Jacob Yfrach, an expert and visionary farmer, is revolutionizing the tobacco industry by cultivating high-altitude tobacco in both open-air and greenhouse environments in the mountains of the Dominican Republic. The cold temperatures and high humidity of these mountainous regions dramatically slow down the processes of cultivation, drying, and fermentation, creating significant challenges.

Ten years ago, we asked ourselves a question: is it possible to create something modernist, reduced, and engineered in an industry that leans heavily on tradition?
We did not have a clear answer then. We still run German Engineered Cigars alongside our regular professions – two people, a shared commitment, and a refusal to rush. What we do have now, ten years later, is a portfolio of Dominican and Nicaraguan blends we are proud of, a growing family of retailers and distributors who understand what we are building, and a few new ideas we are eager to share.This year, we are marking the milestone with a new blend: RVGN Extrem.
