Alberto Medina has been in the cigar industry for a long time and his latest creation, the PIO Resurrection, is a line of box-pressed cigars that will be sure to knock your socks off. He has been a master cigar blender........

"We never closed," he said during last month’s International Premium Cigar & Pipe Retailers Association convention & trade
show in Las Vegas. "We kept making cigars with our four rollers in Miami, but now we can sell them everywhere."
The Pio VI taste and
style has been maintained, today using an Ecuadorian-grown, Sumatra-seed wrapper, Ecuadorian binder and Dominican and Nicaraguan-grown
filler leaves. Only five sizes are made, from a 5-inch by 50-ring Robusto ("Overture No. 3") to the 7-inch by 48-ring Churchill ("Overture
No. 1") at retail prices of $5.25 to $7.50 before local tobacco and sales taxes.

My selection of cigars this evening is not a new cigar, but a cigar that has been around for many years but has been tied up in courts due to trademarks. Now that the legalities have been taken care of the PIO VI is coming back to market.
