At the 2015 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show, the Miami Cigar & Co. booth featured a new addition: Toscano.

Jason Wood, the vp of Miami Cigar, told halfwheel that it was a test to see how the brand would fit within the Miami portfolio. Since the mid-summer trade show, the two companies have worked on finalizing a distribution deal, which they have now completed.

We are happy to welcome the Toscano Cigar family into the Miami Cigar & Co. portfolio.”
