Marco V Cigars - From the Den to the Deck: Finding Your Spring Rhythm


There is a specific smell to April in Minnesota. It’s the scent of thawing earth, the first hint of green, and—for the Marco V community—the return of the outdoor smoke. After a winter spent tucked away in lounges or home dens, April is the month we reclaim our patios, our golf carts, and our "me time" under an open sky.

The Shortest Month, The Longest Grind: Why February is for the Bold

The Shortest Month, The Longest Grind: Why February is for the Bold

A Legacy of Opportunity Our story began with a moment of bold optimism in the face of uncertainty. In 1909, an Italian immigrant named Victor Vito stepped onto American soil with nothing but pennies and a vision. The first thing he did? He lit a cigar.

Marco V Cigars - April Update

Marco V Cigars - April Update

We created this cigar back in 2009 to add a mild bodied cigar to our V. Gigante line.  I loved how the buttery Connecticut wrapper complimented the secco tobacco from the Dominican Republic.  The 5" x 60 ring gauge format allowed the cigar to exhibit hints of the flavor from the wrapper while showcasing the filler.  The cigar is mild in body but is exploding with flavors that range from sweet to savory.
