Punch Cigars is adding a new regular-production cigar to its lineup, this time centered around the brand’s longtime mascot.
Called Mr. Punch, the release pays tribute to the character that has appeared on Punch packaging for decades. The blend uses an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper over a Nicaraguan Jalapa Seco binder with Nicaraguan fillers. Production takes place at the Scandinavian Tobacco Group factory in Estelí, Nicaragua. According to the company, the cigar offers notes of wood, cream, and spice.
The cigar will be offered in three sizes: Toro (6 x 54), Gigante (6 x 60), and The Big Slapper (7 x 70). The latter becomes the largest regular-production Punch cigar to date. Suggested retail pricing is set at $7.89, $8.99, and $10.09, respectively, with each size packaged in boxes of 20.
“Mr. Punch is a true icon not just in the cigar industry, but in pop culture. So it only made sense to create a cigar that captures his spirit. This new blend delivers a classic Punch smoking experience with a flavor profile tailored to the modern consumer. We know it’s going to be a hit,” said Scott Abney, Brand Manager for Punch Cigars.
Mr. Punch is scheduled to begin shipping to retailers in July 2026 as an ongoing addition to the Punch portfolio.
