Earlier this year, Micallef followed up the very successful Micallef Black with the Micallef Blue. The Micallef Blue isn’t just a redo of the Black with a different wrapper, the Micallef Blue is a completely different blend. Featuring a San Andrés Sumatra wrapper, the Blue enters a very competitive market of sub-$10 cigars. The vitolas offered are the same as the Black: robusto and toro.

“Black quickly became a humidor staple for consumers and brick-and-mortar partners for its unparalleled quality at a compelling price point. Continuing this legacy, Blue offers a unique blend designed to captivate and satisfy the palate without compromising quality or affordability,” said Micallef Cigars in a press release.
“Following the success of Micallef Black, our job is to exceed expectations,” said Dan Thompson, President of Micallef Cigars. “The Micallef Blue is a slightly sweet San Andrés Sumatra, praised by those who enjoyed it early—another premium experience at an unbeatable pocket-friendly price.”
