MBombay Adds Classic Torpedo

This week, MBombay will begin shipping a new size for its original offering: the Classic Torpedo. Only, you won’t be able to buy it by the box.

The new 6 x 52 vitola will only be offered as part of a new five-cigar MBomaby Sampler Pack. It includes:

The sampler will retail for $45.

As for the new vitola, it uses an Ecuadorian habano wrapper, an Ecuadorian binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Peru. MBombay says the cigar aged for 14 months and because of the aging process, it opted not to release the cigar in boxes as a standalone product.

For what it’s worth, the cigar itself would carry an MSRP of $11.95 if it was sold individually.
