Leroy Neiman Collector's Edition 2025

This is the third year that America’s oldest family-owned premium cigar maker and the LeRoy Neiman and the Janet Byrne Neiman Foundation have collaborated to create a luxury, handcrafted cigar honoring the late, iconic, cigar-smoking American artist, LeRoy Neiman. Continuing the tradition from previous years, all profits will be donated to support arts education in public schools. 
 
“This year’s edition features LeRoy’s painting, ‘Jazz Horns,’ a beautiful image depicting the spontaneous energy and sounds of jazz,” said Drew Newman, fourth-generation owner of J.C. Newman. “We chose this image because of the return of our annual trade show to New Orleans, the birthplace of jazz.”

LeRoy Neiman Collector’s Edition cigars are handcrafted at J.C. Newman’s historic El Reloj cigar factory in Tampa, Florida. The 2025 edition is a 6 1/4” x 52 Torpedo rolled with a Havana Rosado wrapper, a Florida Sun Grown binder, and a blend of aged filler tobaccos from Latin America.  This year’s edition is limited to 15,000 cigars, packed in 750 cabinets of 20 cigars

Inside each cabinet is an authentic lithograph of “Jazz Horns.” The image is also wrapped around each cigar. The bottom of each cabinet includes a surprise print of Neiman’s paint-splattered New York City studio floor. All of the packaging was printed by Vrijdag Premium Printing in Holland.

J.C. Newman and the Foundation will be donating all profits from this collaboration to support arts education in Tampa’s public schools, including those surrounding the El Reloj cigar factory.
