My Father Cigars Announces Flor de las Antillas 10th Anniversary Limited Edition

Later this year, My Father Cigars will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of its Flor de las Antillas line with a limited edition release that provides a new spin on the blend.

Specifically, the 6 1/2 x 52 toro will use tobacco grown completely by the García family on its farms in Nicaragua. It keeps the same seed varietals, but the wrapper will be a bit darker than the regular production line, while the blend will have a slightly stronger profile on the whole.

The release will be limited to 5,000 boxes of 12 cigars, with that number a nod to 2012, the year the cigar debuted. Each cigar will wear a new primary band as well as a ribbon foot band, and will be packaged in an individual wood coffin. Each box will be individually numbered.

Janny Garcia told halfwheel that the boxes are currently going into production, and while My Father Cigars is planning to show off the cigar at the PCA Convention & Trade Show in July, the company is still finalizing when it will ship to stores, as well as what the pricing will be.

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, the G-League's Valley Suns, 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.
