Presidential Reserve

Some cigars are created for the market. Others are created for the maker.
Presidential Reserve belongs firmly in the second category.
When Abram Harris set out to create this blend, he had no intention of offering it to the public. As President of Don Abram Harris Cigars, he wanted a cigar that reflected his own personal tastes—a cigar reserved for special moments, meaningful conversations, and occasions worthy of something exceptional.
What emerged was a blend that quickly earned a reputation among the small circle of people fortunate enough to experience it. The response was immediate. Friends, fellow cigar enthusiasts, and trusted associates all asked the same question: "When are you going to make this available?"
At first, that was never part of the plan.
Presidential Reserve was intended to remain exactly what its name suggests—a personal reserve cigar. It was crafted without compromise and without consideration for trends or market demands. It was simply the cigar Abram wanted to smoke himself.
Built around aged Puerto Rican binder and filler tobaccos, Presidential Reserve continues the tradition that helped define the earliest Don Abram Harris blends. The unique character of Puerto Rican tobacco provides a foundation of complexity and refinement, delivering a smoking experience designed to be savored rather than rushed.
What truly sets Presidential Reserve apart is the subtle influence of 150th Anniversary Grand Marnier. Rather than overwhelming the blend, it serves as a delicate accent, adding a layer of elegance and depth that complements the natural character of the tobacco. The result is a cigar that feels both sophisticated and approachable, offering a unique experience that reveals itself gradually throughout the smoke.
Like any true reserve, this is not a cigar intended for hurried moments. Presidential Reserve was created for those occasions when time slows down and the experience matters as much as the destination. It is the cigar you reach for when celebrating an achievement, sharing a memorable conversation, or simply enjoying a quiet moment of reflection.
Available in either a U.S.-grown Connecticut Shade wrapper or a Cameroon wrapper, Presidential Reserve offers two distinct expressions of the same philosophy. The Connecticut Shade highlights balance, smoothness, and nuance, while the Cameroon wrapper introduces additional richness and complexity without sacrificing the blend's refined character.
What began as a personal cigar eventually became something larger. The enthusiastic response from those who experienced it convinced Abram that a cigar this special deserved to be shared.
Today, Presidential Reserve remains one of the most distinctive offerings in the Don Abram Harris portfolio—a cigar born not from a business plan, but from a passion for exceptional tobacco and the desire to create something worthy of life's finest moments.
Some cigars fill humidors.
Others create memories.
