Patina Cigars and Viso Horny have announced that their new collaborative release, Patina y Viso Horny Verdigris, is officially shipping to retailers this week. The project marks a first-time partnership between the two boutique cigar brands.

The Verdigris is a 5 x 52 robusto featuring an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, an Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed binder, and fillers from Nicaragua. Production is handled at Nicaragua American Cigars S.A. (NACSA), a factory known for crafting cigars for a number of small-batch brands.

The name โ€œVerdigrisโ€ references the greenish patina that forms on copper, tying into Patina Cigarsโ€™ brand identity and offering a subtle nod to the collaborationโ€™s layered character.

The limited release is being distributed to a curated list of retailers across the country:

  • Casa de Montecristo โ€” Countryside, IL
  • Harryโ€™s Smoke Shop โ€” Philadelphia, PA
  • Lake Country Cigars โ€” Delafield, WI
  • Mardo Cigar โ€” Sarasota, FL

  • Ramsey Smoke Shop โ€” Ramsey, MN
  • Small Batch Cigar โ€” Orange, CA
