There’s a new special cigar to celebrate the 38th anniversary of Daniel Marshall.

Most notably, the cigar will be made by Arturo Fuente. It’s called the Daniel Marshall by Carlos Fuente – XXXVIII Limited Edition January 2020. It’s a 6 3/8 x 52 torpedo that is made entirely of Dominican tobacco from the Fuente family, some of which is aged for up to 12 years. Marshall says the cigar is being produced by a single roller.

It will be sold only in Macassar ebony travel humidors that can hold up to 20 cigars. Each humidor will include eight of the special cigars and a cedar tray.

Marshall said pricing is still being determined, but it will be less than $1,000.

“Carlos and I grew up together from boys to men sharing similar values, commitment to quality and an unrelenting quest for the best,” said Marshall in a press release. “What joins us together, the golden thread that runs through our veins and drives us to live our dreams, is a commitment to create in all we do a richness of character and generosity of spirit.”

“What a huge honor and privilege this project has been for me,” said Carlos “Carlito” Fuente Jr. “It was a calling of the heart for a special friendship that I have cherished and appreciated for long before most anyone reading this knew anything about cigars. Thank you Daniel Marshall for being who you are and have been consistently all these many, many years.”

It debuted at the Kitzbuhel, Austria at the Daniel Marshall Cigar Lounge. The cigar will be sold at 38 stores around the world, each of which will host a Daniel Marshall “Modern Day Campfire” event.
