Wildfire Cigar Company is a new company owned by Jeremy McDonald, the former National Sales Manager of Caldwell Cigar Company. The company will be launching with two blends, The Single and The Revivalist. The cigars will be produced at Joya de Nicaragua with distribution being handled by Illusione, but all sales being handled by McDonald himself.
As said by McDonald:
It may only be me out on the road building this, but I will not be alone. The relationships I’ve cultivated, and the friends I’ve made, are just as much a part of the success of Wildfire Cigars as is selling the product itself. That is what I want to show my daughters; Success is from the life you live, not just from what you take home. We can all be masters of our own destiny. We can all be artists if we choose to share what we create. I’m doing this myself and for them.
I have partnered with a factory that I love and respect, and together we are crafting some damn fine cigars for one purpose: To find commonalities in other humans and enjoy those moments together. The ethos is simple; I want to sit, share a cigar, learn, be present and take in every moment with people I love.
What made me fall in love with tobacco, and choose this industry as my profession, was the fact that it does not matter where you came from, what you believe, and what you smoke. A cigar bridges that gap and creates a level playing field for us all to be with one another while enjoying a cigar. That is what gets lost in translation. Wildfire Cigars exists to remind us all it’s just a cigar, but it’s not just a cigar. It’s the stories we share, the moments we have, and the memories we share. Those are what matter. Those are what change us, and those are what last forever. I named the company Wildfire Cigars because it only takes a spark to catch fire. So, let’s smoke together.
