Below is the Press Release I got tonight from Miami Cigar & Company. In a nutshell Nestor Miranda and Don Pepin Garcia are teaming up once again and will make what will be called the Nestor Miranda 1989, tributing the year Miami & Cigar Company (an umbrella for Nestor Miranda, La Arora, Leon Jimenes cigars) was founded. Due to the economy and the increasing popularity of the $5 price range of cigars, the Nestor Miranda 1989 will retail in the $5 range. This once again proves that the Cigar Manfactures listen to thier consumers and is truly a great industry to be a part of.
Here is the full Press Release
Miami, FL…29 Apr…Honouring Miami Cigar & Company’s founding in 1989, the Nestor Miranda Collection presents, 1989.
A beautifully blended combination of Nicaraguan tobaccos, the cigar was blended and is being manufactured by My Father Cigar Corp. It was inspired by Nestor Miranda who described to Pepin Garcia the particular flavour and body he was looking for “…that can be sold at a very reasonable price point, in deference to the prevailing economic conditions.” The cigars will sell for $5.00.
“While we do not have any cigars in the Nestor Miranda Collection that are expensive, we wanted to offer an excellent smoke at a very reasonable price point. It has become obvious that smokers, like everyone else, these days, are seeking to restrain their spending,” Rene J. Castaneda, Miami Cigar & Company Vice President said. With the continued success of the Special Selection; the recent introduction of the Dominicano and now the 1989 more or less completes the Nestor Miranda Collection. With a cigar for every smoker’s preference and pocketbook.
A satifying blend of rich, aromatic and flavour filled Nicarauguan tobaccos, from Estelí and Jalapa, the Nestor Miranda Collection 1989 comes in three (3) sizes:
Robusto 5 x 50
Toro 6 x 50
Torpedo 6-1/8 x 52
The Nestor Miranda Collection 1989, like all other cigars in the Collection is made with two distinct wrappers. A Rosado, for those preferring a medium bodied smoke, and Oscuro to satisfy the taste of those seeking a medium to full bodied cigar.
The 1989 will make its appearance in tobacco shops starting 1 May.

I’m a huge fan of Nestor Miranda and Pepin. I’m excited to see a Nicaraguan cigar of such quality coming out at such a low price point! I’ll have to see which one fits better in my taste preferences – the Rosado or the Oscuro…

Thanks guys, I am really looking forward to trying all of Nestor’s new blends. I have still not been able to get my hands on the Dominicano either which I hear is pretty tasty
