Brick House – A Tribute to Hungary
The term “Brick” means brick in English. With the Brick House cigars, the Newman family honors the family home of their company’s founder. Julius Newman, who emigrated from a small Hungarian village to the United States in 1888, quickly adapted to his new homeland. Following American tradition, he adopted a second name. He chose “Caesar”—a bold step that reflected his ambitions. With this imposing name, Julius Caesar Newman was destined for greatness.
From Immigrant to Cigar Mogul: J.C. Newman Company
His dream became a reality. Julius Newman trained in the cigar industry and eventually founded his own company. Today, the J.C. Newman Company is one of the most established names in the cigar industry, with a strong focus on the import and distribution of cigars within the United States.

The Brick House brand is just one of several labels under the company’s portfolio. These also include the El Baton cigars and the luxurious Diamond Crown cigars.
Brick House Cigars – Reviving Tradition
More than 130 years after its founding, the J.C. Newman Company remains a family-run business. With the Brick House cigars, the founder’s descendants draw on a personal piece of family history, reviving a brand that originated back in the 1930s. Today, the flavorful, slightly sweet Brick House cigars are available in three variants: as a Nicaraguan puro, as the mild Double Connecticut, or as the Maduro, which delights with its pleasantly sweet and spicy notes.
