In 2016, La Barba released One & Only, a limited edition release based on a limited amount of aged tobaccos. Now, the name comes back for a similar concept, albeit a different blend.

At this month’s IPCPR Convention & Trade Show, La Barba will sell One & Only (2018), a 6 1/2 x 54 release using an Ecuadorian habano wrapper and other tobacco aged 10 years on average. Pricing is set at $13 per cigar and it will be sold in boxes of 10.

Tony Bellatto, La Barba’s founder, said the tobaccos used are not enough for a full production release and as such, this will be a one-time release.

He also said the cigars are scheduled to begin shipping in August.
