La Tradicion Cubana is bringing back one of the more popular cigars it made for another brand, but this time it will be under its own name.

Santos de Miami, the extreme box pressed cigar previously made for Jameson Cigar Co., is a Dominican puro that will be released in three sizes, Haven (6 x 54, $8), Alma (5 x 46, $7) and Lancero (7 x 38, $7). The wrapper is a Dominican corojo leaf, while the binder is a Dominican corojo 98 and the filler contains Dominican corojo and criollo.

Just like the original release, each size comes in 10-count boxes and is made at Tabacalera La Tradicion Cubana in the Dominican Republic.

Luis Sanchez said that the relaunched Santos de Miami will be a regular production line that will begin heading to retailers shortly after the IPCPR Convention & Trade Show, which runs from July 25-28 in Las Vegas, Nev.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
