POPULARITY
Luciano Cigars is a company that has undergone some significant changes. Last year, the company was known as ACE Prime, but since then has taken on the name of its CEO and blender, Luciano Meirelles. As a part of that rebranding, the company has also made significant changes, setting up a new factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, its own distribution and fulfillment center in Florida, and establishing its own sales force. Along the way, the company has still focused on product innovation. At the 2023 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, plenty of new products were showcased. One of the most exciting things about Luciano Cigars is it has established a network of partners and collaborators that are a part of its business model. This has allowed these partners and collaborators to leverage the production capabilities at the Luciano Cigars factory and the sales and distribution the company has established. This model reminded me quite a bit of what C.L.E. Cigar Company had done with the Fabricas Unidas model - serving as an "incubator" for its partners and collaborators. Now it's fascinating to see it happening again in the cigar industry. Full PCA Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-qjy

In this episode of Deep Cuts Live with host Antoine Reid, we chat with Luciano Meirelles, owner of Luciano Cigars (formerly Ace Prime). When Luciano Meirelles' family faced a traumatic event, he knew he had to make a change. Determined to be more present with his loved ones, he decided to simplify his life and pursue his passion for cigars. But instead of launching his own brand right away, Luciano took a different approach – he grew tobacco, learned how to ferment it, and made cigars for others long before starting his own label. In this inspiring interview, we'll learn more about Luciano's journey, his philosophy on creating a premium cigar brand, and how he defines his purpose. Whether you're a cigar enthusiast or simply someone who struggles with work/life balance, Luciano's story is sure to motivate and inspire you. So sit back, relax, and join us as we delve into the fascinating world of cigars with Luciano Meirelles.

Jiunn, Seth, John and Aaron discuss their review experience with the ACE Prime Maria Lucia https://developingpalates.com/reviews/cigar-reviews/team-cigar-review-ace-prime-maria-lucia/
Coming in at #29 is the Fiat Lux Insight by Luciano. Fiat Lux is a Latin expression for “let there be light” from the intellectual movement of the Enlightenment. The cigar was released originally under ACE Prime and has moved over to Luciano Meirelles' new company Luciano Cigars. The cigar that landed on the Countdown represents the ones sold by ACE Prime prior to the rebranding. At the time ACE Prime released the cigar, the company stated "When you first light a great cigar, a space of expectation is created, where the opportunity for discovery presents itself. You taste a great blend, and you will be enlightened, both by delving into the complexity of flavors and with the possibility of introspection. It was with this sensorial and mindful journey in mind that the idea of Fiat Lux emerged, as a new blend that procures to express the birth of knowledge, to embody the consequence of its meaning: Let there be light." This was the goal with Fiat Lux. Fiat Lux by Luciano consists of a high-priming Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper. Sumatra is a wrapper that has been seen across the Luciano, Pichardo, and MxS brands and across the ACE Prime portfolio. The remainder of the Fiat Lux blend consists of all Nicaraguan tobaccos. Production is handled out of the Tabacalera Pichardo factory. The Insight size, which is a classic 5 5/8 x 46 Corona Gorda, is the one that landed on this year's Countdown. The Fiat Lux Insight delivered notes of natural tobacco, earth, cedar, baker's spice, and black pepper. There are two hidden attributes this cigar has: 1) It has an amazingly clean finish; 2) The flavors complement and balance each other extremely well. The Fiat Lux Insight delivers a medium-strength, medium-bodied experience. This is most likely ACE Prime's second and final appearance on the Cigar Coop Countdown. With many of the former blends moving to the new company Luciano Cigars, any subsequent release after the transition will be credited to Luciano. References Full #29 Report

Oct 2nd 2022. The Cigar Smokers are joined by a good friend Ed Trevino (@cigarguyed) . We got to sit down with Ed , who was recently become the Sales Director of Luciano Cigars. Ed tells why he was drawn to Luciano Cigars owner and co-founder of Tabacalera Pichardo and ACE Prime, Luciano Meirelles. We were able to get an early look at the vision and future of such an exciting line of cigars. Ed shares the importance of the Brick N Mortar shop in the industry and to the cigar smoker. We make Ed create an island 5, with a twist. The guys talk about the new cigars they have been smoking all week, giving what hit and what missed. We break down what you should be looking for this week, if your smoking time is limited.

For Ace Prime Cigars' third PCA/IPCPR Trade Show, the company shared a booth with Crowned Heads and the newly launched Ozgener Family Cigars. While Crowned Heads serves as the distribution hub for the three companies, Ace Prime's Tabacalera Pichardo has emerged as the production hub. Tabacalera Pichardo is doing production for Ozgener Family Cigars, and in the past couple of years has been picking up a lot more production for Crowned Heads. At the same time, Ace Prime has been quietly building up a solid portfolio. This year was perhaps the best for Ace Prime as the company launched Mas Igneus and the PCA Exclusive Maria Lucia. Both garnered acclaim for the samples that have been given out, and this demonstrates the emergence of Ace Prime co-owner Luciano Meirelles as one of the rising stars in the world of blending. When you talk to Meirelles, one thing is very clear – Luciano Meirelles loves tobacco. PCA 2022 Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-nfY

When it comes to the Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, Crowned Heads has been a staple for over a decade. Every year, when it comes to visiting the Crowned Heads booth, the reaction coming out of it has pretty much always been “Crowned Heads had a great show”. This is with good reason – because the company has delivered time and time again with compelling products and the stories behind them. 2022 was no exception to the “great show” outcome. This year, Crowned Heads not only shared a booth with its strategic partner Ace Prime, but also with Tim Ozgener's new Ozgener Family Cigars company. In addition, Ozgener is reunited with his former CAO alumni as not only is Crowned Heads heads handling Ozgener's distribution, but Tim Ozgener himself is now a partner in Crowned Heads. In addition to the strong three-way alliance Crowned Heads has with Ace Prime and Ozgener Family Cigars, the company introduced two new products to market, including an exclusive cigar to 2022 PCA Trade Show attendees. Perhaps nobody brings a story to a cigar like Jon Huber, and this year was no exception. PCA 2022 Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-ngh

From the 2021 PCA Trade Show, we talk to Luciano Meirelles of ACE Prime. 2021 marked the second Premium Cigar Association (PCA)/IPCPR Trade Show for ACE Prime. Two years ago, ACE Prime made a huge splash at its debut Trade Show with over ten releases. Also at the 2019 Show, ACE Prime was bolstered by the presence of NBA Stars Dominique Wilkins and Tiago Splitter. 2021 is a very different story. This year ACE Prime was sharing the booth with its strategic alliance partner Crowned Heads. Product-wise, there only two new releases. At the same time, there was no doubt the ACE Prime had taken things to the next level as there was a lot of energy and excitement in the booth. There were several reasons for this energy and excitement. It starts off with co-owner Luciano Meirelles. Very simply, Luciano loves tobacco – and he has also quickly established himself as a leader in the tobacco business. Secondly, one has to notice how ACE Prime and Crowned Heads have developed a synergy. You could see it was all one family and the joint booth made this one of the more special booths at the 2021 PCA Trade Show. References PCA 2021 Report: ACE Prime

From the 2021 PCA Trade Show, we talk to Jon Huber of Crowned Heads. One can certainly make the argument that Crowned Heads and Ace Prime both individually and collectively were the standout companies of the 2021 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show. This was the first trade show that both companies were “in action” with their strategic alliance. Both companies brought new and exciting products to the Trade Show, and both did an excellent job with their PCA Exclusive Cigars. The shared booth space certainly was quite active throughout the whole trade show. Today we will turn our focus to Crowned Heads – and then follow this up with Ace Prime in a separate report. We apologize in advance for audio issues here, but hope you enjoy the interview. References PCA 2021: Crowned Heads

The shared booth space certainly was quite active throughout the whole trade show. Today we will turn our focus to Crowned Heads – and then follow this up with Ace Prime in a separate report. We apologize in advance for audio issues here, but hope you enjoy the interview. References PCA 2021: Crowned Heads
On today's episode of The CigarClub Podcast we check in with Vegas Dave at TPE as he sits down with Luciano from Ace Prime Cigars as he talks about "Disruptor Cigars" and the passion of the people working day in and day out on the cigars you love.Sit back, light up and enjoy!
This week, #ELOsoFumarTakes welcomes some of the best pinch hitters in the game for #Take172. Ace Prime's Luciano Meirelles, La Flor Dominicana's Jon Carney, Espinosa Cigars' Hector Alfonso, Cigar Federation's Tripp Waldrop, and The New Cigar Coop Team led by William Cooper, alongside Erron Nielsen and Ben Lee (formerly of Stogie Review). We've got everything from a Phillies and Mets fan to someone in El Salvador. This #Take was an entire fluke! Our slated guest was unable to make the show literally last minute. I threw out a 9-1-1, and in true friendship fashion that the cigar industry holds dear - some of the best of the best responded. Some of their responses to my call for help are below. Enjoy! Luciano: "I just landed in El Salvador, I'll be on in 20 minutes." Jon: no response, just showed up! Coop: "I got my studio up in record time!" Tripp: "I'm in, do you still need me on?" Erron: Jumped on after a quick text from Coop Ben: "I'll be there" and the first to respond, Hector: "Give me 10." I am still in awe. For this occasion, our panel and I are pleased to spotlight the ACE Prime Foundation.

I ask you, humbly, to take a few minutes and take part in this survey. Two major points: 1) No personal info will be asked for or given by you 2) THE GOAL: to see what, if any, influence and impact Cigar Media has on the way you, the consumer, views and takes part in this industry we love. It would honor me to hear and see your thoughts. Thank you in advance. Click here: https://tcu.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1X1Pg1Jgp813LRr This is going to be one awesome #Take! Enjoy!
