Tampa Trolleys Cigars: Made in Tampa at El Reloj
Tampa Trolleys is a J.C. Newman cigar brand produced at the company's historic El Reloj factory in Tampa, Florida. The cigar was created as a reference to the cigar-making history of Ybor City, once one of the most important cigar manufacturing centers in the United States.
Unlike J.C. Newman's Nicaraguan-made Brick House, El Baton, and Perla del Mar brands, Tampa Trolleys are produced in the United States. The current cigar uses a Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper with Dominican and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos.

Tampa Trolleys and Ybor City
Tampa Trolleys were created to recognize the history and culture of Ybor City. Tampa once supported a large cigar-manufacturing industry centered around Ybor City, and J.C. Newman's El Reloj is the last operating cigar factory from that era. The Tampa Trolleys name connects the cigar directly with that local history.
