Maya Selva is offering a new Grand Pressé
cigar and new accessories: the Flor de Selva
and Cumpay ashtrays. The company’s first
box-pressed cigar, the Flor de Selva Grand
Pressé Maduro is a prensado full of dark choc-
olate and spicy aromas. The company is also
celebrating a 92 rating for its Villa Zamorano
Expreso.
A No. 4 for the
Miranda Collection
The newly redesigned Nestor Miranda
Collection was launched during Miami
Cigar & Co.’s 25th anniversary in 2014.
The collection featured three different
cigars (NMC Connecticut, Habano, and
Maduro.) The sleek packaging and cigar
blends were well received, but Nestor
Miranda felt the portfolio was not com-
plete. He ultimately decided it was time
to create an NMC blend featuring his fa-
vorite wrapper, the Corojo.
The Nestor Miranda Corojo is a me-
dium-to-full-bodied Nicaraguan puro
that comes in 20-count boxes and re-
tails for between $7.50 and $9.50. The
blend is available in four sizes: Robusto
(4.5x50), Corona Gorda (6x46), Toro
(5.5x54) and Gordo (6x60).
“Nestor has been adamant about in-
troducing his beloved Corojo wrapper
to the collection,” says Jason Wood,
vice president of the company. “We
would have loved to introduce it sooner,
but we decided to wait until the blend
was perfect. The reaction from the re-
tailers at this year’s IPCPR solidified our
thoughts on the blend.” Miami Cigar,
