Matt Booth has always operated at the intersection of boldness and refinement — and the Doomsayer is his most explicitly dramatic declaration of that philosophy. Named as a prophecy rather than a warning, the Doomsayer signals the end of uninspired smoking experiences. Tobacco Business Magazine agreed, naming it the 2020 Boutique Cigar of the Year — recognition that this blend’s construction ambition and flavor execution genuinely earned the dramatic name Booth gave it.

Two expressions, two personalities, one set of convictions. Both the Passive and the Aggressive share the same Indonesian binder and a three-source long-filler blend of Nicaraguan, Honduran, and Pennsylvania Broadleaf — the Pennsylvania Broadleaf inclusion being one of the most distinctive filler components in the Room101 portfolio, carrying an earthy, rustic American character that neither Nicaraguan nor Honduran tobacco can replicate. The Passive wears an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper for a rich, balanced profile of spice and depth. The Aggressive wraps its identical core in a Maduro wrapper whose origins Matt Booth has deliberately left as a mystery — a characteristic Booth move, leaving something undisclosed to let the smoke speak for itself. Bold, spicy flavors with a smooth, refined finish define both expressions — a cigar that doomsays uninspired tobacco while delivering exactly the experience the name promises.

Why You’ll Love It

2020 Boutique Cigar of the Year: Tobacco Business Magazine’s recognition placed the Doomsayer at the summit of the boutique cigar world for 2020 — an award that reflects the construction ambition of the Pennsylvania Broadleaf filler inclusion, the Indonesian binder, and the two-wrapper-expression format that makes the Doomsayer genuinely unlike anything else in the Room101 lineup.

Pennsylvania Broadleaf in the Filler: The inclusion of Pennsylvania Broadleaf long-fillers alongside Nicaraguan and Honduran tobacco gives the Doomsayer a distinctly American character that sets it apart from every other Room101 blend — a filler tradition that pre-dates modern cigar making and contributes an earthy rusticity that neither Nicaraguan nor Honduran leaf alone can produce.

Two Personalities, One Prophecy: Passive and Aggressive — the names tell you everything about the approach while leaving the experience itself as a discovery. Both expressions share the same foundation and deliver the same Boutique Cigar of the Year standard, channeled through two different wrapper characters that honor every preference at the premium end of the Room101 catalog.
