ORTEGA WILD BUNCH SERIES – IRON MIKE 

In a Limited production of only 500 boxes, Iron Mike is the second release of the Wild Bunch Series, which was created to celebrate some of the colorful characters that Mr. Ortega has met in his years in the cigar business. A new Wild Bunch cigar will be released every month throughout 2013, also, featuring the original art work of Neal Wollenberg. Each cigar will be made in only one size and when they are gone – they are gone. Look for each release to be available at Deadwood Tobacco Company in Deadwood South Dakota.
