If you are a cigar fan, then you probably realize, at this point, most ‘Celebrity’ based cigars aren’t usually worth it. Most of the time, the ‘big name’ attached is just to sell the cigar. However, there are a few outliers; one of the biggest, and in my opinion, best, is Espinosa Cigars’ line, Knuckle Sandwich Cigars. Few cigar collaborations have made an impact quite like them. What started as a partnership between master blender Erik Espinosa and celebrity chef Guy Fieri has grown into one of the most talked-about brands in the premium cigar world. Their shared appreciation for craftsmanship, quality, and memorable experiences is evident in every blend. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet evening on the patio or celebrating with friends, these cigars are designed to be part of the moment.
From the very beginning, the goal was never to put a celebrity name on a cigar—it was to build a brand worthy of earning its place in any humidor. The original releases quickly developed a loyal following, and every new addition has continued that momentum. Today, the line’s success has led to an exciting new chapter, with Guy Fieri and Erik Espinosa working together to establish a new cigar factory in the Dominican Republic. Espinosa has always been known for the force and power of Nicaraguan blends, so this should show another side to the company.
Guy Fieri has often spoken about bringing people together through great food, and that same philosophy carries over into these cigars. Every blend is meant to be enjoyed, shared, and remembered. Erik Espinosa has echoed that commitment, focusing on premium tobaccos, expert construction, and balanced blends that smokers can appreciate from the first draw to the last. Together, they’ve created a cigar line that feels authentic—one built on passion, friendship, and a genuine love for the craft.
There are four in the core line: Knuckle Sandwich Maduro, Knuckle Sandwich Habano, Knuckle Sandwich Connecticut, and Knuckle Sandwich Puro Nicaraguan. There are also a slew of limited cigars that get released, like the NEW Knuckle Sandwich Avant Garde, Knuckle Sandwich Chef’s Special, and the Guy Fieri Birthday cigar.
You’ll find the complete lineup of Knuckle Sandwich Cigars at Oak Glen Tobacconist, including fan favorites and limited releases that are often difficult to track down. Whether you’re picking up your very first Knuckle Sandwich Cigar or adding another box to your collection, you’ll quickly understand why this partnership has become one of the biggest success stories in premium cigars.
