About Us

Built on Heritage. Created for Legacy.

Mandingo Maduro Cigars LLC
Established 2019 β€’ Columbus, Ohio

Every great cigar tells a story. Every great brand has a king behind it.

Mandingo Maduro Cigars LLC was founded by Quinton β€œQ” Branham in Columbus, Ohio β€” a Black-owned brand built at the intersection of cigar culture, African heritage, and luxury lifestyle. What started as a passion for premium smokes became a movement: Smoke With Q.

The African Kings Collection

Rooted in the power and legacy of African royalty, the African Kings Collection is our flagship line. Each cigar in the collection carries the name of a legendary African warrior, king, or conqueror β€” Shaka Zulu, Kunta Kutter, Ashanti Ember, Black Pharaoh, and more. These aren’t just cigars. They’re declarations.

The Next Generation Collection

Built for the next wave of kings. The Next Generation Collection represents the evolution of the Mandingo Maduro brand β€” bold, modern, and unapologetically royal. From graphic tees to premium lounge sets, every piece carries the crowned lion and the standard of excellence.

More Than a Cigar Brand

Mandingo Maduro is a lifestyle brand. Our apparel β€” tees, hoodies, hats, sweatpants, CEO polos, and lounge gear β€” is designed for those who carry themselves like royalty. Black & gold. Crown & lion. Every detail intentional.

The Smoke With Q Experience

When you light a Mandingo Maduro, you’re joining a community. A circle of kings and queens who value heritage, conversation, and quality. That’s the Smoke With Q experience β€” premium product, royal culture, and a brand that stands for something.
