Blackbird Glitch

What was originally a factory mistake, now dons the name GLITCH by Blackbird Cigar Company. Jonas Santana, Co-founder and CEO of Blackbird tells the story. He says there was a mistake in the factory as to which tobacco was supposed to be used for a certain blend. But upon further discovery, the blend that resulted from this mistake was actually quite palatal. They had discovered a wonderful GLITCH. How often a GLITCH becomes an opportunity? There are 3 Blends with 2 Vitolas each. Claro will have an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper with a Mexican binder and filler from The Dominican Republic and the USA. The filler is the same in all three blends, but the Habano has an Ecuadorian Habano Wrapper with a Mexican binder, and the Oscuro has a Mexican San Andres wrapper with a Dominican binder. Each blend comes in a 5 x 50 Robusto for MSRP $6.10, and a 6 x 52 Toro for MSRP $6.60. Very price conscious cigars for those who appreciate good tobacco.

Bruces Liebe zum Tabak wurde nach dem Besuch von Zigarrenfabriken und Feldern in Honduras schnell zur Leidenschaft. Nachdem er für zehn Jahre am Blending- und Auswahlprozess zahlreicher Zigarrenmischungen teilhatte, wurde er 2015 schließlich Lektor für das Cigar Journal. Er erhielt einen Mastertitel in der Fremdsprachenlehre von der University of South Florida und unterrichtet Deutsch und Spanisch seit 15 Jahren. Neben Zigarren gilt seine Leidenschaft dem Reisen und Fußballtraining. Er lebt mit seiner Frau und zwei Kindern in Florida.
