At the 2024 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, Artista Cigars will launch HOF by David Ortiz. HOF is the third blend launched under Artista’s David Ortiz Series.

HOF stands for Hall of Fame. The cigar honors Ortiz’s induction to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2022. HOF by David Ortiz features a Mexican San Andres wrapper, a sweet Indonesian binder, and an undisclosed filler blend.

HOF by David Ortiz comes in two sizes: a regular production Toro 54 x 6 (SRP $15.00/cigar) and a limited edition Figurado (SRP $16.00/cigar). A total of 541 boxes of the Figurado will be made available. The 541 number is significant because it is the number of home runs attributed to Ortiz during his professional career. Each limited edition box is hand-numbered, and Ortiz will autograph a few boxes. The Toro is offered in a 20-count box, and the LE Figurado in a 10-count box.

Under the Ortiz Series, Artista also offers the Big Papi and Slugger blends.

The 2024 PCA Trade Show opens on March 23, 2024, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Artista Cigars expects HOF to ship in July 2024.
