Black Label Trading Co. Releases 10th Anniversary Edition of Morphine Cigars

November 8, 2024 Inspector X 2 min read

Black Label Trading Company is set to ship the 10th-anniversary release of its Morphine cigars to select retailers next week. Crafted at the Fabrica Oveja Negra in Estelí, Nicaragua, this special edition features classic and new vitolas, offering a unique experience for cigar aficionados.

Celebrating a Decade of Morphine

To mark ten years of the Morphine line, James Brown, the creator of Black Label Trading Co., has curated a mix of classic and innovative vitolas. The release includes familiar favourites like the Robusto and Lancero, alongside new formats: the Petite Perfecto and a Box Pressed Toro. According to Brown, “The Perfecto was designed to symbolise the chrysalis of the Death’s Head Moth, while the Toro highlights the versatility of the blend, particularly in a larger format.” This vintage promises to be one of the most distinguished editions yet.

Morphine’s Unique Blend and Vitolas

The Morphine line is crafted in Nicaragua, using a dual wrapper blend of Ecuador Maduro and San Andrés, complemented by a Nicaraguan binder and filler. Each vitola offers a distinct experience:

  • Toro Box Press (6 x 54) – MSRP $13.50
  • Petite Perfecto (5 x 50) – MSRP $11.50
  • Short Robusto (4.5 x 52) – MSRP $11.50
  • Lancero (7.25 x 42) – MSRP $12.50

The Box Pressed Toro, available in a special “Dressed Box” format, showcases the depth and adaptability of the blend, while the Petite Perfecto provides a more concentrated flavour profile, appealing to those who appreciate complex nuances.

Black Label Trading Co.: A Commitment to Quality

Black Label Trading Company is known for its “less is more” philosophy, focusing on small-batch, high-quality cigars that push the boundaries of traditional cigar-making. Each Morphine cigar is hand-rolled with meticulous attention to detail at Fabrica Oveja Negra, emphasising the brand’s commitment to premium craftsmanship.

Where to Find Morphine Cigars

The 10th-anniversary edition of Morphine will be available at select retailers. For those eager to try these unique cigars, Oveja Negra’s website offers a convenient store locator, allowing consumers to search by zip code for the nearest stockist.

This special release is a testament to Black Label Trading Co.’s dedication to delivering distinct, high-quality cigars that stand out in the market.
