Artista Colorado is a medium-strength cigar blend and features an exquisite Ecuadorian Corojo
wrapper which combines with a Sumatra binder for a robust, smooth smoke with hints of cedar,
earth, and white pepper with a touch of natural sweetness.
The packaging of the Colorado matches the new packaging of Artista Puro Ambar and Artista Cimarron, which began shipping to US retailers in February 2025. This new packaging is a visual cue to consumers that the cigars are priced lower at retail than Artista Harvest, Midnight, and Falu.
Kevin Newman Vice President of Artista Cigars stated:
“We are committed to offering consumers and retailers with affordable options as well as cigar blends that punch well above their retail price in every category”
Radhames ‘Ram’ Rodriguez, President of Artista Cigars added:
“Affordability is a key concern, not only for consumers and retailers in the US, but around the world. Our Factory is vertically integrated, and as such we offer some of the best tobaccos at the best prices”.
Artista Colorado is offered in a Robusto (5×54) and Toro (6×50) and is priced below $10 per stick (MSRP per cigar is $8.28 for the Robusto and $9.00 for the Toro.)
Artista Colorado will be on display and for sale at PCA 2025 in New Orleans, and Artista Cigars anticipates shipping to retailers the first week of May.
