Room 101 Red Rocket

The Room101 Red Rocket cigar may be one of the more... shall we say, heavy handed naming approaches from Room101... ah, who are we kidding, it's Matt Booth we're talking about; of course it's going to dance around uncivil territory! Originally crafted as a collaboration with Sir Louis Cigars, the project highlights Room101 founder Matt Booth’s knack for pairing bold ideas with carefully curated tobacco blends (it's named for Sir Louis' French bulldog, just so we're all on the same page here). Now available to a broader audience, the Red Rocket retains its distinctive identity while inviting more hobbyists to experience its one-of-a-kind character.

Crafted at the Tabacalera William Ventura factory in the Dominican Republic, the Red Rocket features a dark Mexican San Andrés wrapper—known for its earthy richness—paired with an Indonesian binder. The filler combines tobaccos from the USA, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic, resulting in a medium-plus body with a subtle sweetness and a long-lasting finish.

True to Room101’s reputation for delivering memorable cigars, the Room101 Red Rocket offers a balanced smoking experience that’s both sophisticated (that may be a bit of a stretch...) and approachable. Expect a flavor-forward profile geared for the maduro junkie, being an easy choice for both seasoned enthusiasts and adventurous newcomers.
