 * Keep - First off, "one of the oldest family owned tobacco companies in North America" (per the article) is certainly a claim of notability. Secondly, the topic passes WP:CORPDEPTH. Source examples include:
 * Cigar Afficionado
 * Chicago Sun-Times
 * Medill Reports (about the source)
 * Medill Reports (video report)
 * New City (about the source)
 * Chicago Tribune
 * The Mason City Globe-Gazette
