Frequently Asked Questions
What is the RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania?
The RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania is the 2024 reblend of RoMa Craft's first and most popular line. It pairs a Pennsylvania broadleaf wrapper with an Ecuadorian Sumatra-hybrid binder and Dominican-Nicaraguan filler. The change came after the original Connecticut broadleaf got hard to source. It's a regular-production cigar made in EstelÃ, Nicaragua.
How strong is the RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania?
The RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania is a medium-plus cigar, lighter than the original Connecticut-wrapped CroMagnon that built the brand's reputation for strength. The reblend trades some raw power for balance, with creamy cedar, charred meat, dark chocolate, and a black-pepper retrohale. Most smokers find it full of flavor without a heavy nicotine punch.
How is the CroMagnon Pennsylvania different from the original CroMagnon?
The RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania uses a Pennsylvania broadleaf wrapper, an Ecuadorian Sumatra-hybrid binder, and added Dominican filler. The original used Connecticut broadleaf, a Cameroon binder, and all-Nicaraguan filler at full strength. You can tell them apart by the band: white text marks the Pennsylvania version, gray text the Connecticut original.
Who makes the RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania?
The RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania is made by RoMa Craft Tobac at its Fábrica de Tabacos Nica Sueño factory in EstelÃ, Nicaragua. The company was founded by Skip Martin and Michael Rosales, and CroMagnon was its first release back in 2011. The Pennsylvania reblend rolled out at the 2024 PCA trade show.
What sizes does the CroMagnon Pennsylvania come in at Renegade?

Is the RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania good for beginners?
The RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania suits smokers who already enjoy medium to full cigars more than total beginners. At medium-plus strength it's more approachable than the original CroMagnon or RoMa Craft's Neanderthal, but the rich, earthy profile still hits. New smokers may prefer starting with the milder Intemperance EC XVIII.
Has the RoMa Craft CroMagnon Pennsylvania won any awards?
The reblended RoMa Craft CroMagnon drew strong reviews, with the 2024 Knuckle Dragger landing at #12 on halfwheel's Top 25 Cigars of 2024. Reviewers praised the Pennsylvania broadleaf blend for its balance and layered profile of cedar, charred meat, and cocoa, calling it smoother than the original Connecticut version.
