Benjamin Holt is excited. That’s not a verb that normally describes the man but this close to his Dissident Cigar brand launch at IPCPR 2019, excited is the only word that fits.

Dissident’s two core lines, Soapbox and Bloc are new blends developed at Fabrica Oveja Negra in Esteli, Nicaragua.

In an earlier press release, Ben said, “I am very excited about this. A lot of thought, time and work as been put into making this happen and I’m ready to show it to the world. I think these blends are very unique and offer a special smoking experience for those who love cigars. They really highlight the quality of tobacco that’s used at Oveja Negra.”

Both blends will be available in three sizes.
