PRESS RELEASE
October 22, 2024
Micallef Cigars announces the release of the Smoke Inn Exclusive Micallef Black Soft Box-Pressed Toro. This 6.5 x 54 vitola, crafted at Micallef’s factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, elevates the rich, full-bodied blend that has captivated aficionados since its debut in 2023.
The Micallef Black features a distinctive San Andrés Mexican Maduro wrapper, paired with an Ecuadorian Habano binder and Nicaraguan fillers, delivering power with sophistication. Now, Smoke Inn customers can enjoy this blend in a unique soft box-pressed format, with rounded edges instead of the sharp lines typical of a box press. Continuing the tradition of great value that the Micallef Color Series is known for, this special size is available at $9 per cigar in a 10-count box, offering a refined smoking experience at an unbeatable price.
Abe Dababneh, owner of Smoke Inn, shares his thoughts on the project: “Working with the Micallef family and Dan Thompson has been a great experience. Their business
philosophy and strong connection with their customer base first attracted me to the brand. The Micallef Black line was a breakthrough and sparked the success of the Micallef Color Series. Given the positive feedback from our community, we wanted to create something special exclusively for Smoke Inn. The Micallef Black Soft Box-Pressed Toro enhances the already excellent blend of the Black line, and I am eager to share it with Smoke Inn Socialites and customers across the country.”
Dan Thompson, President of Micallef Cigars, also commented on the collaboration: “We are pleased to partner with Abe and Smoke Inn to introduce this exclusive vitola of Micallef Black. The remarkable response we’ve received for this blend is a testament to its quality. Working with Smoke Inn has been a positive experience, and we’re excited to offer their customers a truly unique addition to the Micallef portfolio.”
The Micallef Black Soft Box-Pressed Toro offers a richly balanced smoking experience, combining the strength and complexity of the original blend with the smoothness and refined construction of a box press. This exclusive release will be available at Smoke Inn’s retail locations starting October 23, and online through their store beginning at 11 AM the same day. Quantities are limited, so customers are encouraged to secure their boxes early.
