History
 | This section needs additional citations for verification. (October 2022) |
The Brick House brand was created in 1937 by Julius Caesar Newman, founder of the J.C. Newman Cigar Company. He named the cigars to honor his family home in the Hungarian countryside, a brick house that housed the Newman family residence on the top floor and a local tavern they ran on the bottom floor. The earliest Brick House cigars were made using Cuban tobacco. The brand faded in time, but in 2009 it was revived by third generation owners Eric and Bobby Newman with the use of Nicaraguan tobaccos.[1]
Awards
The cigar has received several awards, including the Best Bargain Cigar of 2009 by Cigar Aficionado.[2]
