Sinistro Ships Last Cowboy, Pre-Release Honor Among Thieves

A trio of new releases from Sinistro Cigars will be hitting store shelves in the coming days, though one is much more limited than the others.

The company’s Last Cowboy line, which was shown off at the 2018 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show, is offered in two varieties, one using a Connecticut shade-grown wrapper and the other using a Connecticut broadleaf maduro wrapper.  The Connecticut shade-grown wrapped version, pictured above, also uses a double binder of Cameroon and Ecuadorian Sumatra tobacco, while the filler comes from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Peru. It is available in four sizes:

• Sinistro Cigars The Last Cowboy Churchill (7 x 47) — $7.09 (Boxes of 20, $141.80)

The maduro version, meanwhile, is offered in six vitolas, and uses a Mexican San Andrés maduro binder and Dominican piloto cubano filler.

Also heading to retailers is a new cigar line called Honor Among Thieves that won’t get a full release until the 2019 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show, although half a dozen retailers are getting pre-release versions of the cigar, which uses a Brazilian Cubra maduro wrapper, a binder of undisclosed origin, and a filler of Nicaraguan ligero, piloto ligero and corojo ligero, Dominican ligero and Pennsylvania broadleaf. It is being released in four sizes:

• Sinistro Cigars Honor Among Thieves Box Press Toro (6 1/2 x 54) — $8.25 (Bundles of 20, $165)
