There’s a new box-pressed version of Blackbird’s Crow blend, one that for now is only available at Smokingpipes.com.

Earlier this week, Smokingpipes.com began selling the Crow Box Pressed, a 6 x 52 toro. It uses the same blend as the regular Crow: a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over a Dominican habano binder and fillers from Nicaragua and Pennsylvania.

It has an MSRP of $12.72 per cigar and is offered in boxes of 20 cigars.

Blackbird says it will begin shipping the Crow Box Pressed to other retailers in late October. The company told halfwheel that this year’s production was 600 boxes, but it might increase the number to 1,000 boxes for 2025.

The round version of the Crow was introduced in 2019. It is offered in three sizes.

Smokingpipes.com is part of Laudisi Enterprises, which also owns Caldwell Cigar Co.
