There have been a variety of cigars released with Nestor Miranda’s name on it, but a new one debuting later this month is said to be one that is one of his personal blends.

It’s the Nestor Miranda Private Reserve Lancero, the first cigar in a new series from Miami Cigar & Co. Unlike most of the Nestor Miranda-branded cigars, this release is is being made in the Dominican Republic by La Aurora. The 6 3/4 x 40 lancero will use a Dominican corojo wrapper over a Nicaraguan criollo 98 binder and fillers from Brazil, the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua.

MSRP is set at $18 per cigar and it is limited to 500 boxes of 10 cigars. It will debut at Cava Cigars in Miami on Feb. 26 and begin shipping to other stores on March 1.

Miami Cigar & Co. says the Nestor Miranda Private Reserve line will contain blends and sizes that are selected by Miranda himself, all released in limited quantities.
