Mooncake is Caldwell's Yellow Cake blend under a Connecticut wrapper.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Caldwell Mooncake taste like?
The Caldwell Mooncake is the Yellow Cake blend finished in a Connecticut wrapper. Caldwell says the wrapper keeps Yellow Cake's core character while making the smoke smoother and sweeter. Connecticut is a lighter, shade-grown wrapper known for a creamy profile. Expect a mellower take on Yellow Cake, not a different cigar.
How strong is the Caldwell Mooncake?
The Caldwell Mooncake sits in the mild-to-medium range. The Connecticut wrapper tones down the Habano-wrapped Yellow Cake it's built on. That makes Mooncake an easy morning cigar and a good step up for mild smokers. Caldwell has not published an official strength rating.
What tobacco is in the Caldwell Mooncake?
The Caldwell Mooncake uses a Connecticut wrapper over an undisclosed binder and filler. Caldwell has kept the Yellow Cake recipe secret since it debuted, and Mooncake follows the same rule. The wrapper is the only change from Yellow Cake. Caldwell has not confirmed where Mooncake is made.
How is the Caldwell Mooncake related to Yellow Cake?
Caldwell Cigar Co. built the Mooncake from its Yellow Cake blend. Yellow Cake launched in 2014 as an event-only cigar and drew enough demand for wider seasonal releases. Mooncake keeps that blend and swaps the Habano wrapper for Connecticut. The result is a softer version of a cigar Caldwell fans already know.
Is the Caldwell Mooncake a limited release?
Yes. The Caldwell Mooncake is a limited seasonal release capped at 2,400 five-packs. It went on sale September 16, 2026. Caldwell has not announced another production run, so retail stock may not come back once it sells through. Renegade Cigars received a small allocation.
What size is the Caldwell Mooncake and how much does it cost at Renegade Cigars?
The Caldwell Mooncake comes in one size, a Robusto (5x50), sold at Renegade Cigars as a 5-pack for $38.05. A robusto is a short, thick format that smokes in about 45 to 60 minutes. Pick it up in the Richardson, TX lounge or online.
