What Sets Black and Mild Apart from all other cigars in the market?

As earlier stated, Black and Mild Cigars are filled with pipe tobacco as opposed to regular cigar fillers. Let’s explore this for a moment.

Cigars are filled with whole leaf fillers sourced mainly from one area, Central America. This means the flavor profile for cigars is dependent on the seed, climate, soils, and the aging process of the leaves.

Pipe tobacco, on the other hand, is sourced from different parts of the world. The main strains of pipe tobacco include Virginia, Burley, Turkish, Orientals, Latakia, and Dark Fired Kentucky, among others. Flavors are sprayed onto the leaves while the tree is still growing. This is why pipe tobacco has a wide variety of flavors infused into the filler as opposed to the flavors that are artificially added to the cap of a cigar. The aroma comes from treating the leaves with food-based casing.

Black and Mild cigars carry an array of blends including Golden Virginia, Kentucky, and Burley. You may come across Black and Mild cigars made from Cavendish tobacco but in reality, Cavendish is a blend of Virginia, Kentucky and Burley cut and cured in a particular way.

Black and Mild tobacco fillers are premium quality and the different flavor profiles are developed by carefully blending two or three different tobacco strains. Cigars that take on a sweet flavor are likely to contain Golden Virginia tobacco which is famous for its high sugar content, darker flavors come from Kentucky tobacco, while Burley tends to be subtle.

Ultimately, Black and Mild cigars deliver a unique taste appreciated by pipe enthusiasts and cigar aficionados alike. If you have not tried Black and Mild cigars yet, prepare to be amazed.
