OUR STORY
YEARS AGO, WE EMBARKED ON THIS VENTURE ONLY TO ENCOUNTER UNFORESEEN CHALLENGES. THE UK, IN MANY WAYS, OPERATED AS AN EXCLUSIVE DOMAIN, WITH A HANDFUL OF SUPPLIERS FIERCELY GUARDING THEIR MARKET ACCESS AND, ABOVE ALL ELSE, THEIR EXORBITANT PROFIT MARGINS.
THIS SEVERELY HAMPERED OUR CAPACITY TO ENGAGE IN SERIOUS SMOKIN' (NO G!). IT WAS HIGH TIME FOR A TRANSFORMATION. WE HAD TO REBEL AGAINST THE STATUS QUO AND DEFY THE POWERS THAT BE.
HAVING OCCUPIED NUMEROUS ESTEEMED LEADERSHIP ROLES WITHIN PROMINENT CORPORATE ESTABLISHMENTS, WE YEARNED TO BE FREE FROM THE SHACKLES OF EXCESSIVE RULES AND REGULATIONS. HOWEVER, VENTURING INTO THE CIGAR INDUSTRY WITHIN THE UK MAY HAVE BEEN THE LEAST FAVORABLE OPTION. THE SHEER MAGNITUDE OF RULES, REGULATIONS, AND EXORBITANT TAXES IS TRULY ASTONISHING.
OUR SECOND HEADQUARTER IS A VIBRANT HOUSEHOLD IN ORLANDO FLORIDA THAT REVERBERATES WITH THE SOUND OF LOUD ROCK MUSIC. THE DECIBELS SOAR HIGHER WITH EVERY BEAT, AS WE FIRMLY BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF AMPLIFIED TUNES. OUR DECISION TO LAUNCH A BUSINESS AMIDST THE PEAK OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, SOME MIGHT ARGUE, WAS A VENTURE DRENCHED IN FOOLISHNESS.
OUR FOCUS IS ON NEW WORLD CIGARS BLENDED EXCLUSIVELY FOR REBELLION.
SPRING 2020 HELD PROMISING PLANS FOR US AS WE METICULOUSLY ORGANIZED A SERIES OF FACTORY VISITS ACROSS SOUTH AMERICA. OUR AIM WAS TO FORGE CONNECTIONS WITH PROSPECTIVE SUPPLIERS AND REFINE OUR CIGAR BLENDS TO PERFECTION. IT SEEMED LIKE AN IDEAL PATH TO PROGRESS.
HOWEVER, FATE HAD A DIFFERENT PLAN IN STORE. AS AN UNFORTUNATE TURN OF EVENTS UNFOLDED, THE OUTBREAK OF COVID-19 GRIPPED THE WORLD, LEAVING US TEETERING ON THE BRINK OF CHAOS. THE GLOBAL TURMOIL ENSUED WHEN SOMEONE CONSUMED A QUESTIONABLE BAT, AND WE FOUND OURSELVES FACING AN UNEXPECTED HURDLE.
AFTER A SPAN OF SEVERAL MONTHS, BRIMMING WITH COUNTLESS LATE NIGHTS, AN INFLUX OF EMAILS, AND AN ENDLESS STREAM OF WHATSAPP MESSAGES, WE PERSISTED WITH UNWAVERING DETERMINATION. GRADUALLY, THE ANTICIPATED MOMENT ARRIVED—SAMPLES BEGAN TO MATERIALIZE, NECESSITATING OUR VALIANT DUTY TO SMOKE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM.
IN OUR QUEST, WE STUMBLED UPON EXCEPTIONAL BLENDS CRAFTED BY INDIVIDUALS WHO TRULY POSSESS AN UNWAVERING MASTERY OF THEIR CRAFT. OUR PATH WAS FURTHER ILLUMINATED BY THE INCREDIBLE AID AND SUPPORT EXTENDED TO US BY OUR PARTNER FACTORY SITUATED IN HONDURAS. THIS DISTINGUISHED ESTABLISHMENT NOW STANDS AS THE CORNERSTONE OF OUR ILLUSTRIOUS REBELLION CIGAR LINEUP.
BORN OUT OF SHEER FRUSTRATION, FUELED BY A FEW UNFORGETTABLE NIGHTS OF REVELRY, AND DRIVEN BY AN UNWAVERING DESIRE TO SAVOR AFFORDABLY-PRICED YET EXCEPTIONAL STICKS, REBELLION CIGARS WAS BORN.
WE ADDED A TOUCH OF LOUD MUSIC TO THE MIX, COMPLETING THE UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE.
