What are MBF Cigars? MBF Cigars stands for M.B. Fuma. The new brand from Jared Michaeli Ingrisano, former president of Mombacho Cigars and co-founder of Favilli, is launching his own line of cigars in 2024 - in the U.S. for now. I spoke with him and here is his new brand.

Inspired by the Italian culture
America was shaped by Italian immigrants.
Inspired by the Italian culture shaped by immigrants to America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, MBF Cigars offers a fresh and authentic selection of handmade brands from Nicaragua that will be available in the U.S. in just a few months. Thanks to the former president of Mombacho & Favilli, an entirely new brand and story is being created. It will be available for purchase in the U.S. for now and will be launched during 2024.

The packaging is simple and looks really nice Italian flair.
When are MBF Cigars coming?
I asked Jared when the cigars will be launched. "During 2024, we will begin rolling out our portfolio, first visiting areas in our home state of Florida, USA. We will start with the Straight Off the Boat line. I'm not sure yet if and when the cigars will be available for purchase outside of the US. The focus is really on the U.S. market."
Let's start from the beginning: Mombacho no longer exists
Jared Michaeli was president of Mombacho and co-founder of Favilli. On 10.06.23 I received the news that the popular cigar brand MOMBACHO is no longer in production. When asked, Jared Michaeli responded, "Mombacho has been out of production for over a year and a half."

Legal disputes in Germany
Editor's note: In Germany, legal disputes between cigar manufacturers and authorities occur time and again. The reason for this is infringements of protected designations of origin on tobacco products. In particular, terms such as "Habano Seed" and "Habanos" and the like are severely punished by German courts.
MBF Cigars also uses such tobacco terms. However, the editorial team has taken a cautious step to remove the offending terms in order to avoid possible legal consequences. However, some images of the affected cigars still show traces of these protected terms.
The editors have drawn the attention of the owner of MBF Cigars to the legal situation applicable in Germany if he intends to sell his cigars in Germany as well. The use of protected designations of origin can result in severe penalties and legal proceedings. The situation shows how important it is to pay close attention to the rules and guidelines in international trade in order to avoid legal conflicts. See link under "This might also interest you."
The MBF Portfolio
Straight Off The Boat
The main series of MBF Cigars.
The main series of Nicaraguan Puros is the beginning of the story and includes four different products that are always available. We like to say we're your cigar uncle, delivering straight off the boat (#StraightOffTheBoat). The Nicaraguan Maduro cigars offer a rich and flavorful blend at an affordable price and are a dynamic eye-catcher on the shelf.

Nov30
November 30 is the feast day of St. Andrew.
NOV30 stands for November 30, a milestone for our company and the feast day of St. Andrew, whose symbol or martyrdom has graced the Florida flag for more than five centuries. Our connection to Florida dates back to the founding of La Florida. This cigar features a proprietary wrapper that encases tobaccos from the Condega and Jalapa valleys, giving it a bold yet mellow profile, with aromas and flavors reminiscent of the salty air and ancient wood of old Florida.

The cigar industry is one of the sectors of the economy where we can find pleasure and opportunities for discovery.

Boxing
The box cigars
I asked Jared what that was all about? He replied, "Boxing yes, I have been working at a high level in media and advertising for boxing for years. We have made cigars for some individuals and work with some big names that some of you may know. I also make the cigars for all the big fights."
