The first Macanudo Inspirado with Brazilian tobacco will head to stores May 1.

Attendees of this week’s Procigar Festival in the Dominican Republic got a preview of the Macanudo Inspirado Green, a new addition to the Inspirado family. General Cigar Co. says the new three-size line will debut on May 1, though many of the other details—such as what those sizes are, pricing and blend info—remain unknown. It will use Brazilian Arapiraca in the blend, a first for the Inspirado lines.

Like the rest of the Macanudo Inspirado family, it is being produced at General Cigar Dominicana in Santiago, Dominican Republic.
