Henry Clay is one of the oldest and most well-recognized brands in the world. Founded in the 1840s in Cuba and named after American politician Henry Clay, the cigars were a staple in Cuba for decades, until they were eventually moved to the U.S. market.
In 1986, Altadis USA aquired the rights to Henry Clay's U.S. distribution and produced them in the Dominican Repubic. Henry Clay Brevas is one of the cigars produced in this era that made Henry Clay popular. In fact, Pete Johnson of Tatuaje Cigars has said that the Brevas is one of his favorite maduro cigars.
