When it comes to RoMaCraft Cigars you need to be patient especially if you are in a high-volume cigar shop such as Two Guys Smoke Shop. The CroMagnon has been unavailable since the fall of 2019 and before that Neanderthal had its fair share of back orders before shipping on a regular basis again, though some will argue the cigar isn’t the same while others like me will argue it’s even better then ever. Well, […]
When is a barber pole, not a barber pole? The answer in my book is when it’s the Neanderthal Genetic Deformity. The cigar features the wrapper of the Cromagnon Aquitaine (Habano) and Cromagnon (Broadleaf) but unless you look closely you might miss it.

The brand owners of RoMa Craft Tobac had two things in common before meeting. They both had lived in Texas, and they were both passionate about cigars. Mike Rosales had his Costa Rican Imports company producing cigars, while Skip Martin had his cigar shop in Galveston before being destroyed by Hurricane Ike. Eventually they would cross paths and create the brand called RoMa Craft and build a factory in Nicaragua called Nica Sueno. Today we […]
In 2015 RoMaCraft Tobacco introduced a sampler called, El Catador de la Petite Corona which featured all their regular release lines in 4 x 46 format. The release was so popular and highly sought after that it led to release of the of the Cromagnon and Cromagnon Aquitaine in this particular vitola at the 2018 IPCPR trade show.

Last week while on vacation I got the email that it was go time for the sale of the Cromagnon Firecracker, a Two Guys Smoke Shop exclusive. This years edition goes on sale August 14th at 10am eastern time.

The cigars are limited to the top RoMac Craft accounts, and today at 2GuysCigars.com we sold out of them in 18 minutes. Usually […]
This past weekend on The Cigar Authority we had on the show the brainchild behind RoMaCraft Cigars; Mike Rosales & Skip Martin. They were in town for a series of events at Two Guys Smoke Shop and they brought with them some limited edition sizes and cigars. Being the cigar geek that I am, I wound up buying some of the thinner ring gauge items such as today’s review, Cromagnon Breuil. Cigar: Cromagnon Wrapper: Connecticut Broadleaf Binder: […]
