Black Label Trading Co.’s popular Bishops Blend will get its 2024 release during the third quarter of this year.

At last month’s 2024 PCA Convention & Trade Show, the company shared details of this year’s release of Bishops Blend, which the company releases in limited quantities each year. The 2024 release is the same blend and sizes as what the company shipped in 2022, though the price has increased by $1 per cigar. Blend-wise, that means an Ecuadorian habano maduro wrapper over an Ecuadorian habano binder and Connecticut, Nicaraguan and Pennsylvania broadleaf fillers. It is made at the company’s Fábriva Oveja Negra factory in Estelí, Nicaragua.

Bishops Blend will be offered in three sizes:

  • Black Label Trading Co. Bishops Blend 2024 Corona Largo (6 1/4 x 46) — $13 (Box of 20, $260)
  • Black Label Trading Co. Bishops Blend 2024 Robusto (5 x 48) — $12 (Box of 20, $240)
  • Black Label Trading Co. Bishops Blend 2024 Lancero (7 x 42) — $13.50 (Box of 20, $270)

The company has not announced production numbers for Bishops Blend 2024.
