对于美国消费者来说，宾利烟草是一个比较新的品牌，今年春季新奥尔良的PCA贸易展，这个品牌首次亮相。但这个品牌可以溯源到1878年，两兄弟在瑞士创建了Bru-Bu Werke AG公司，这是一家生产烟斗、手杖、滑雪杆的公司。20世纪70年代末，这家公司更名为宾利烟斗公司（Bentley Pipe Co.），2011年，马丁·舒斯特（马丁·舒斯特）收购了这家公司，扩展业务，开始卖雪茄和烈酒。2017年，宾利烟草进入高端雪茄市场。
去年，乔纳森·卡尼（Jonathan Carney）被任命为宾利烟草美国公司的首席执行官，他本人在多米尼加之花雪茄公司工作了13年。
宾利品牌目前有两个系列产品，都是乔亚雪茄公司代工的。白色系列口味温和一些，绿色系列是中等到浓郁口味。
这两个系列都是四个尺寸，同一个尺寸的零售价是一样的。
皇冠，46环径，5.5英寸，每支售价13美元。罗布图，50环径，5英寸，每支售价14美元。公牛，52环径，6英寸，每支售价15美元。丘吉尔，54环径，7英寸，每支售价16美元。都是每盒20支装。
白色系列的茄衣是厄瓜多尔康涅狄格烟叶，茄套茄芯都是尼加拉瓜烟叶。
绿色系列茄衣是厄瓜多尔哈瓦那烟叶，公司称之为厄瓜多尔罗萨多。
宾利烟草还计划8月份推出两个新尺寸，进一步扩大产品线。绿色系列GT大公牛是专为美国市场生产的，70环径，7英寸，每支售价18美元。
该公司还推出五支一包装的雪茄，有三个尺寸，公牛、罗布图、半皇冠。以前在欧洲销售半皇冠，这次是在美国市场首次销售，45环径，3.75英寸的小口径雪茄。目前在美国市场只有每包5支装的，每包55美元，折合每支11美元。
Bentley Tobacco is a newer cigar brand to American smokers, one that made its big debut at the PCA trade show this spring in New Orleans. But Bentley has old roots, with origins that go all the way back to 1878, in Switzerland. Two brothers founded Bru-Bu Werke AG, a company that made pipes, walking canes and ski poles. In the late 1970s, the company became known as Bentley Pipe Co., and in 2011, Martin Shuster acquired the operation and expanded into cigarillos and spirits. Six years later, Bentley entered the premium cigar market.
Last year, Bentley joined with Jonathan Carney, who spent 13 years with La Flor Dominicana. Carney was named chief executive officer of Bentley Tobacco U.S.A. (Bentley Tobacco is not affiliated with the luxury car brand of the same name.)
Bentley has two lines of cigars, each made at Joya de Nicaragua in Nicaragua. The White is blended to be milder, the Green medium-to-full in body. Right now, they are available in four identical sizes for the U.S. market: Churchill, Corona, Robusto and Toro, and the prices are the same from one line to the next.
The Corona is 5 1/2 inches long by 46 ring gauge, with a suggested retail price of $13. The Robusto, which measures 5 by 50, sells for $14, the Toro is 6 by 52 and has a $15 price tag and the Churchill (7 by 54) has a suggested retail price of $16. They come in boxes of 20.
The White is made with a Connecticut seed wrapper from Ecuador, with an all-Nicaraguan binder and filler blend. The Green is meant to be stronger, with an Ecuador Habano wrapper the company calls “Ecuador Rosado.”
Bentley is also expanding its portfolio with two new sizes that it plans to debut next month. There will also be some new packaging options for some of its cigars. The Bentley Green GT Gran Toro is a completely new size for the brand, made specifically for the U.S. market. It measures 7 by 70, and has a suggested retail price of $18. The company is also bringing out three sizes of cigars in five-packs: Toro, Robusto and Half Corona. The Half Corona is a size that’s sold in Europe, but this will be the first time it’s offered in the United States. It’s a small cigar (3 3/4 by 45) and for now it will only be available in the United States via a five pack. They have a suggested retail price of $11 per cigar, or $55 for the pack of five.
