Black Label Trading Company’s Dreadnought Returns as Atlantic Cigar Exclusive

May 15, 2025 Inspector X 2 min read

Black Label Trading Company has re-released its popular Dreadnought cigar exclusively through Atlantic Cigar Company. This bold, box-pressed toro delivers rich, full flavours in a medium-plus strength profile.

Black Label Trading Company (BLTC) has announced the return of Dreadnought, its fan-favourite cigar originally released in 2022, now available once again—but exclusively via Atlantic Cigar Company. This second edition stays true to the brand’s signature style: small batch, artisan-crafted, and unapologetically bold.

The Dreadnought is hand-rolled at Fabrica Oveja Negra in Estelí, Nicaragua, and is offered in a single vitola: a 6 x 52 box-pressed toro, sold in ten-count packs. Each cigar is priced at $12 MSRP, maintaining a premium experience at a reasonable value for boutique cigar aficionados.

The blend features a Mexican San Andrés wrapper, Ecuadorian Habano binder, and Nicaraguan fillers—a rich combination that results in a flavour profile described by BLTC’s James Brown as “earthy, with dark fruit notes and black and white pepper spice.” Brown, who is also a partner at Fabrica Oveja Negra, commented on the release:
Since its first release in 2022, it has become a fan favourite. Everything about this cigar just screams Black Label—from the artwork to the rich, deep, dark flavours. The profile is bold, but also very complex and refined.

This re-release underscores BLTC’s ongoing commitment to redefining boutique cigar standards. With its “less is more” philosophy, the company continues to focus on high-quality, small-batch productions, making each release something of a collector’s event.

If you’re drawn to complex blends with rich, spicy undertones and appreciate the craft behind boutique cigar making, Dreadnought is a must-try. Available now through Atlantic Cigar Company, but given its limited nature, don’t expect it to stay on shelves for long.
