Not only was Mike Tyson one of boxing’s greatest fighters, but he crossed over to become an icon of pop culture. This summer, his legend grew a bit more with a new cigar line.

This is the fourth and final release of Davidoff’s History Re-Rolled Series, a line that debuted last year made up of cigars Davidoff had previously discontinued but brought back as limited editions. The filler of the blend includes seco from San Vicente that was aged for six months in spent casks that previously held premier grand cru classé red wine from Bordeaux, France.

Created to commemorate the brand’s fifth anniversary in business, this cigar is a 5 1/2 x 58 box-pressed vitola with a small pigtail on the cap. Like all of Casa de Sueños cigars, this limited edition of 3,600 cigars was made by De Los Reyes in the Dominican Republic.

The E.P. Carrillo Sumatra is part of the company’s new Essence Series. Eventually, it will include six different blends, all focused on a different wrapper.

The second vitola—and third release—in E.P. Carrillo’s limited Pledge of Allegiance line is a 6 3/4 x 64 salomon. It was limited to kist 248 boxes, which references the number of years since the founding of the United States.

Eleven years ago, Davidoff entered a new chapter of its storied history, embracing Nicaragua and its tobacco. Ten years later, the company celebrated that event with a cigar; now that cigar gets a revisit.

The SP1014 Antra is made to honor the late daughter of Sanj Patel, who lost her life to sudden infant death syndrome. It was made by Tabacalera Díaz Cabrera using seven different types of tobacco.

Tatiana’s releases have generally been flavored and on the smaller side of the vitola spectrum. With Delights, the company goes into bigger sizes that aren’t flavored, but keep a sweetened cap.

The La Flor Dominicana TAA The Golden Salomon Maduro was released to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Tobacconists’ Association of America. The 7 x 64 Salomon vitola was sold in both maduro and natural wrappers, but La Flor Dominicana has declined to give any other specifics about the blend.

There once was a roller at the De Los Reyes factory named Juan. He was the only one capable of rolling this particular petit perfecto vitola.

Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr. celebrated his 70th birthday in 2021, with the accompanying cigar selected by consumers the following year and released in 2023. After a year of rest, a revisitation of the E.P. Carrillo Platinum Bash hopes to see improvement after a less-than-ideal first impression.
