Immerse yourself in the distinctive world of Warped Cigars, a brand forged from the passion of Kyle Gellis, whose love for cigars began at age six alongside his father in upstate New York. This journey ignited in 2007 when Gellis, then a college student at the University of Central Florida, launched Warped after immersing himself in Miami’s Little Havana, learning from El Titan de Bronze’s master rollers. Partnering with this iconic factory and later Tabacos Valle de Jalapa S.A. (TABSA) in Nicaragua, Warped revived Cuban traditions like entubado rolling and classic vitolas, crafting medium-bodied blends with 100% Aganorsa tobacco. The brand’s reputation soared with 90+ ratings from Cigar Aficionado for lines like Gran Reserva 1988 and La Colmena, and its innovative packaging—featuring minimalist designs and limited releases like Lirio Rojo—captivated enthusiasts. Gellis’ vision of “being exclusively different” shines through in small-batch gems like Corto and Futuro, earning a devoted following.
