Miami, FL -- "The Ruky," the latest addition to the Nestor Miranda Collection Special Selection, has been in limited distribution for eight weeks; to test the market’s response to this exquisite perfecta manufactured for them by My Father Cigars. "Ruky" is a 5 5/8” x 48 x 52
figurado.
"We started with a magnificent blend of beautifully cured, fermented and aged filler from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic," said Miami Cigar President, Nestor Miranda. "The binder is grown in Estelí, Nicaragua, and a superb Nicaragua Habano Oscuro envelopes the cigar."
"Ruky" is Nestor Miranda’s nickname. Going back to his childhood in Holguin, the tobacco rich Oriente Province of Cuba, his friends called him "Ruky." The name has remained among his closest and oldest friends.
"Inasmuch as he insisted on the creation of this vitola, we thought it appropriate to name it "Ruky," said Miami Cigar Vice President, Rene Castañeda. "And since we were extremely gratified by the initial response to Ruky, we decided to expand the distribution even before the IPCPR."
National Nestor Miranda Cigar Day, which commemorated the company’s 20th Anniversary and both promoted the Nestor Miranda Collection Special Selection, and thanked the cigar smoking community for their enthusiastic embrace of the line, saw the sale of a tremendous amount of Ruky where they were available. "Hence, our decision to put the cigar in wide distribution immediately," said Mr. Miranda.
The cigars will be presented in a simple, elegant hinged box containing five (5) cigars, selling for $8.00 each.
