Henry Clay Cigars: From Global Icon to Obscurity

Henry Clay was one of the most powerful names in premium cigar history.

In this episode of The Forgotten Cigars, we trace Henry Clay's 19th century origins, its golden era as a global icon, how the Cuban Revolution and trade embargo dismantled everything the brand had built, and what the Henry Clay name actually means in today's cigar market.
