Black & Mild

Black & Mild is a machine-made, pipe tobacco cigar. John Middleton Co., a tobacco company located in Limerick, Pennsylvania, produces them. As of November 2007, Altria, the parent company of Philip Morris purchased John Middleton, Inc.[1]

Black & Milds have a wrapper made of homogenized pipe tobacco, and are sold with a plastic- or wood tip, untipped, in a shorter version called Shorts—which are about half of the size of regular Black & Milds—and also in filtered little cigar versions.

Black & Milds are sold in different varieties.

The company recently coined the slogan, "Tastes great! Smells great!" due to the sweet smell that the smoke produces.
