News: Black Label Trading Co. Announces Seventh Release of Morphine and a Short Unrelated Editorial

I just finished taking part in another roundtable discussion for an upcoming episode of the Kaplowitz Media Podcast. I’ve been enjoying listening to Kap’s podcasts for a while, and am humbled and honored to have been included in the last two episodes. I actually feel rather comfortable among this group, I feel like I can speak candidly, although I may have spoken a bit too candidly on this episode. Kap’s sense of humor aligns with my own and I appreciate his show, especially his segment with Dion Giolito. It’s very entertaining, just, avoid the segments I appear in, I can’t stand the sound of my own voice, which is largely why I abandoned my own podcast.  Now, since I haven’t smoked anything new or notable over the last few days, here’s some news from the folks at Black Label Trading Company. 

 

Black Label Trading Company is pleased to announce its Seventh annual release of MORPHINE: Hand crafted in Esteli, Nicaragua at BLTC’s own factory, Fabrica Oveja Negra.

 

“This is our seventh vintage of Morphine so we wanted to change things up a bit to celebrate. I designed new artwork and each of the three vitolas is wrapped in two wrappers, Ecuador Maduro and Mexican San Andrés.

old spice on the retro. The key flavors are raisin, black cherry and a big blast of anise on the finish. The dual wrappers work together to make this vintage very unique and one of the best so far,” said James Brown, creator of BLTC and partner at Fabrica Oveja Negra.

 

MORPHINE cigars will be available in limited quantities at select BLTC retailers beginning this week.

News: Emilio To Release Limited Edition LJZ

I’m not sure if I should point this out or not, maybe it’s an innocent mistake. I’ll frame it as a bit of a history lesson. Gary Griffith created the Emilio brand while employed by the Zucca family, and named it after a Zucca family name in tribute to them allowing him to create the brand. So while it’s certainly accurate to say that Scott Zucca owns the Emilio brand, stating that he’s the founder is slightly off. Like I said, might not be wise of me to point his out, maybe they won’t send me the press releases any more, but Gary was always good to me, and I hate to see his legacy erased! Now, I have no doubt that this Emilio is awesome, as nearly everything from BLTC is! I just couldn’t let that go by without commenting!

 

Emilio Cigars releases the Limited Edition LJZ; hand crafted in Esteli, Nicaragua at Fabrica Oveja Negra. This is the second release of this line since the collaboration between Emilio Cigars and Black Label Trading Company (BLTC).

 

The artwork and cigar blend for LJZ were created by James Brown. Mr. Brown, owner of BLTC and Fabrica OvejaNegra, stated, “I’m very excited about this release. This year we changed it up a bit by making the cigar with two wrappers. We combined the light Habano from the previous release with a Sun Grown Habano. This tweak adds a lot of complexity and a little spice to the original blend. Baking spice, cedar and cocoa are the prominent flavors in this well balanced, medium bodied cigar. The artwork I created is a tribute to Scott Zucca’s roots. Scott is the founder of Emilio cigars and I wanted to create artwork that paid homage to his Italian heritage.”

 

LJZ is shipping to select retailers this month.

 

 

Country of Origin: Nicaragua

Wrapper: Nicaraguan Habano and Sun Grown

Binder: Nicaraguan Habano

Filler: Nicaragua & Dominican

 

Robusto – 5×52 (20 count) MSRP $10.00

Toro – 6×50 (20 count) MSRP $11.00

 

Emilio Cigars is a brand with old school roots and new school attitude. With an eclectic portfolio, Emilio is sure to have something for everyone. For more information please visit Oveja Negra Brands website featuring a comprehensive retailer map. www.OvejaNegraCigars.com.
