Privada Cigar Club was founded in 2017 by Brian and Ofelia Desind. It is an Orlando, Florida based premium cigar company that began with a monthly subscription model before branching into other forms of premium cigar retail. Privada Cigar Club remains the only truly RARE cigar of the month club and has since become legendary with over 18,000 monthly subscribers. In July 2020, Privada Cigar Club introduced a new venture called Limited Cigars Association, or LCA, which is the company’s initiative to revive brick and mortar premium cigars shops throughout the United States by sharing limited quantities of popular products on a monthly basis. Each shop in the LCA receives a small quantity of the featured cigar that is then advertised across Privada Cigar Club’s social media channels. The quantities typically sell out quickly.

Jeff Gaston, in located rural southeastern Nebraska. Jeff is 34 years old with a career in Ultrasonic Inspection of metal materials, both manufactured and welded. GSTN Cigar was established in September of 2020 after Jeff complained about the design of an ashtray that his wife had gifted him. She told him to create his own, he did, and the company was born. They produce handcrafted cigar ashtrays from woods such as Walnut, Appalachian maple, Northern Pine, and Curly Cherry that sell both domestically and internationally. Two interesting facts about Jeff is that he only has one eye due to Glaucoma, and lost most of his taste buds when he was a child, which makes finding the right cigar a true journey.
