Longtime friends and veteran firefighters, Jason and Christopher (also a veteran Marine) share a passion for servitude and a shared love of camaraderie, hard work, and a good cigar. That led them to spark a new venture - Oakland Tobacco Company.

Founded in Oakland California, a city known for its strong sense of community and a rich diverse history. OTC embodies thosse values, built on the same principles that guided them throughout their 20+ year careers in the Fire Service - brotherhood, resilience, and dedication to craft. Their cigar company aims to deliver on those principles-premium, hand-selected blends put together for those who appreciate the finer moments in life. Whether you’re celebrating an achievement , unwinding after a long day, or simply enjoying good company, Oakland Tobacco Company delivers.

When Jason and Christopher set out to create their brand they asked themselves one question:

What do we want people to take away from us besides selling a cigar?
The answer was that we value people, a sense of belonging, achievement in value and a better day. That’s what we aim to do through our cigars!

OTC isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel when it comes to cigars, but for those who are new to the sport we invite you to experience the taste and quality.
