Omar McGee
The Rose Gold Reserve Cigar was a labor of love and the brainchild of Howard University alum and CEO Omar McGee: serial entrepreneur, founder of the luxury lifestyle brand The Posh Collection and, most important, a cigar aficionado.
A coveted indulgence among a discerning clientele, the Reserve has captured the hearts and palates of celebrities, tastemakers and aficionados alike. It is available in extremely limited quantities because of the rarity of the tobaccos and the aging process.
“I wanted to craft more than just a cigar. I wanted to create an experience.”
Omar McGee, Founder and CEO, to Black Enterprise
Crafted in Danlí, Honduras
The Rose Gold Reserve is blended using premium Honduran binder and filler, housed in a true Mexican Maduro wrapper. Different primings and strains of tobacco were combined and then aged, which gives the cigar its distinct aromatic flavor.
Born from a three-year collaboration with master blender Christian Eiroa, the Reserve stands as a testament to craftsmanship and an unwavering dedication to excellence.
Pursuit of perfection
Crafting a cigar is a timeless and ever-evolving process. From the moment a seed is planted, through cultivation, harvesting and curing, every step demands an unwavering commitment to excellence.
