Oscar Valladares McFly Shipping Tomorrow
If you like cigars and Back to the Future, there’s a cigar heading to stores that might pique your interest.
Tomorrow, Oscar Valladares Tobacco & Co. will begin shipping the company’s new line, McFly. It’s a follow-up of sorts to the company’s Super Fly, another cigar inspired by a film. Blend-wise, the Oscar Valladares McFly uses a Mexican wrapper over a Honduran binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic, Honduras and Nicaragua. Each cigar has a brushed foot.
- Oscar Valladares McFly Toro (6 x 52) — $11.50 (Box of 20, $230)
- Oscar Valladares McFly Churchill (7 x 48) — $12 (Box of 20, $240)
- Oscar Valladares McFly Sixty (6 x 60) — $12.50 (Box of 20, $250)
Like the Super Fly, the packaging is inspired by the movie, which came out in 1985. The packaging attempts to recreate holographic elements that were popular in the 1980s, along with other themes that would have fit right into the world nearly four decades ago.
