Warped Cigars has announced plans for a new cigar line called Sky Moon that combines elements of the company’s Sky Flower and Moon Garden lines.

The company announced the new cigar via Cigar Aficionado, which reports that the cigar is a Nicaraguan puro offered in a  5 1/2 x 42 corona vitola but with a 109-style rounded head. The blend reportedly uses a shade-grown corojo 99 wrapper from Jalapa, and a filler containing corojo 99, criollo 98 and medio tiempo, with the latter coming from Jalapa. All of the tobacco reportedly comes from AGANORSA, who is said to be making the cigar at its factory in Estelí.

Sky Moon will be released prior to the 2023 PCA Convention & Trade Show, with shipping reportedly scheduled to begin on July 3. It will be priced at $11 per cigar, with 500 boxes of 50 cigars produced.

An e-mail sent to Warped Cigars seeking to confirm the report’s accuracy has not yet been returned.

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 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.
