Cigar.com Transitioning to Cigora.com | halfwheel

Cigar.com, one of the online retailers owned by Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG), will soon have a new name, as the company will be transitioning it to a somewhat new name, Cigora.com.

Cigora was launched in August 2022 as “a premium cigar destination built for enthusiasts who value discovery, exceptional cigars, and an elevated shopping experience.” The site became known for offering a curated portfolio, exclusive offerings, enhanced loyalty benefits, and personalized service. STG says that with the transition, Cigar.com customers will now enjoy these benefits.

“Cigar.com has earned the trust of cigar enthusiasts for years, and we’re honored to carry that legacy forward through Cigora,” said Matthew Pysher, merchandising manager for Cigora. “While the name on the website may be changing, our commitment remains the same: helping customers discover great cigars, exceptional service, and a community built around a shared passion for the cigar lifestyle.”

The transition will begin Sept. 29, with Cigar.com customers able to continue using their accounts and loyalty points, which will be transferred automatically. Cigar.com customers will also be receiving information about the transition via email.

Scandinavian Tobacco Group also owns Thompson Cigar, General Cigar Co., and Forged Cigar Co., among other cigar companies.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury and the G-League’s Valley Suns. I was previously the PA announcer for the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League, and Goodyear Ballpark, spring training home of the Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Guardians. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I’m a voiceover artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
