About Room101 Cigars
Room101 is the cigar brand Matt Booth started in 2009. Scandinavian Tobacco Group bought Room101 in 2022, and Booth stayed on as creative director. The 17th Anniversary we carry is made for Room101 by A.J. Fernandez in Estelí, Nicaragua.
The Room101 Anniversary Series
Each year Room101 marks the brand's birthday with a cigar made only for that anniversary. Booth calls each one a snapshot of where the brand stands at that moment, so every anniversary gets its own blend. The 15th Anniversary went on sale in February 2025, later than planned, and Room101 skipped a 16th Anniversary. The series continues with the 17th.

Room101 17th Anniversary
A 6 x 52 toro and a Nicaraguan puro, with a Nicaraguan wrapper, binder and filler. A.J. Fernandez grew all of the tobacco and worked out the blend with Booth. It is full-bodied, a step up from the medium-bodied 15th Anniversary. Expect black pepper and baking spice early, then dark chocolate, roasted espresso and earth. Room101 made 2,500 purple boxes of 20, or 50,000 cigars in total, and shipping began in August 2026. Shop the Room101 17th Anniversary.
Who Room101 Suits
- Fans of full-bodied Nicaraguan cigars: the 17th Anniversary is all Nicaraguan tobacco, rolled at A.J. Fernandez's factory.
- Collectors: each anniversary blend is made once, in a fixed number of boxes, and is not repeated.
- Gift buyers: the purple box of 20 is a good fit for a Room101 fan.
Singles, 5-Packs or a Full Box
You can buy the 17th Anniversary as a single to try it, as a 5-pack, or as the full box of 20. The full box is the best way to keep a limited release on hand after it sells through.
Storing Room101 Cigars
Keep them in a humidor at 65 to 70 percent humidity and about 65 to 70°F. If you plan to age a box, leave the cigars in their cellophane and store the box closed so the cigars rest evenly.
