Micallef Cigars says that many of its blends are medium-bodied, so the company is making something stronger for its next release.

The Micallef Black will be launched at select events next month. It uses a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over an Ecuadorian habano binder and fillers from Nicaragua. The Micallef Black will debut in two sizes:

  • Micallef Black Robusto (5 x 52) — $7 (Box of 25, $175)
  • Micallef Black Toro (6 x 52) — $8 (Box of 25, $200)

“With Micallef Black, our intention is to present a cigar that exudes power, confidence, and a touch of allure,” said Dan Thompson, president of Micallef Cigars, in a press release. “Moreover, we are thrilled to offer this exceptional blend at an unbeatable value.”

The company says the Micallef Black will get a larger release at the 2023 PCA Convention & Trade Show, which takes place July 8-11 in Las Vegas.
