Barrington House Premium Jamaican Cigars is one of the world’s leading cigar companies, and is the last bastion of cigar manufacturing in Jamaica, providing premium cigars to the most discriminating connoisseurs. It was the dream of Barrington Adams, to revive the culture of cigar making in Jamaica. Jamaica has had a centuries long tradition of manufacturing fine cigars. High labor cost and severe weather conditions lead to the decline of this industry, but, after finding success as a real estate entrepreneur in New York, Jamaican native, Barrington Adams, wanted to restore the former cigar powerhouse to its premier role in the worldwide cigar industry. He decided to give back to his native island, and began his efforts to revive the Jamaica cigar industry. Today, Barrington House Premium Jamaican Cigars is leading the resurgence of the Jamaican cigar industry.

For all those who have been used to, and comfortable with, the aroma and taste of Cuban cigars, it should be noted that Jamaica and Cuba have very similar climates and soil conditions, which results in Jamaican tobacco being among the best in the world. Barrington House manufactures flavored cigars, which have become increasingly popular. The Harvill cigars are created using fine flavors including Rum, Vanilla and Passion Rum.  This international best-seller is hand-made in Jamaica.   For the purist, Barrington House has reintroduced the exquisite Santa Cruz Jamaican Puro and continues to produce cigars using the original blends created by Cuban ex-pat and master cigar blender Jimmy Chang, including Jimmy Chang’s original blend for the Jamaican Macanudo (Barrington House is not presently associated with Macanudo which is now a registered trademark that is owned by General Cigar Company).  Jimmy Chang’s original Jamaican blend is available as the “Guaranteed Jamaican Founders Edition” and as the vintage “Fundadores” available through Barrington House.Barrington House is the only producer of true Jamaican premium cigars.  Other companies may label their cigars “Jamaican” or “Jamaica”, but only Barrington House manufactures premium cigars in Jamaica, hand-rolled, using on the finest prime Jamaican tobacco.  Barrington House has brought back the finest traditions of the Jamaican cigar industry, long known for fine and mild tobaccos and the highest quality smoking experience.
