Kyle Gellis established Warped Cigars in 2007.At age 16 that Kyle enjoyed his own first cigar, a Montecristo No. 2 Habano that was a gift from his father. The experience ignited Kyle’s passion for cigars even further. At age 18, while attending the University of Central Florida, Kyle made weekly trips to the historic neighborhood of Little Havana in Miami, where he learned everything he could about the manufacturing and blending of cigars. The idea to form his own cigar business was percolating, and he visited factory after factory to find a suitable partner. When he came upon El Titan de Bronze, he knew he had found the one.
Today all the old cigar factories in Little Havana have closed down, with only El Titan de Bronze on Calle Ocho remaining. It is here that Kyle produces Warped Cigars, some of the most unique, Cuban-inspired cigars on the U.S. market. Each cigar in Warped’s portfolio is personally and masterfully blended by Kyle in a style that brings each sensory component together in balanced harmony. Warped is a direct reflection of Kyle’s vision for what the ideal cigar profile should be.
