Captain
Black Little Cigars is a brand owned by Scandinavian Tobacco Group, a company
with a long history in the tobacco industry.
A Bit of
History
The Captain
Black brand began over 50 years ago, initially producing only pipe tobacco,
which it sold in many countries worldwide. The company that produced them was
called Lane Limited, and since its inception in 1973, it quickly became the
top-selling pipe tobacco in the United States market.
Nearly two
decades later, in the early 1990s, they decided to continue advancing and
launched a new presentation of Captain Black tobacco in the form of filtered
cigars. In 1998, they started producing plastic-tipped cigars called Captain
Black Tipped Cigars, and also a sweet version called Captain Black Little
Cigars. These were made from a special blend of Burley and Flu cured tobaccos
from Africa, Brazil, Bulgaria, and the Orient, infused with a wide variety of
flavors.
These
tipped cigars opened doors to new international markets, becoming particularly
popular in Russia and Canada.
In 2011,
Scandinavian Tobacco Group acquired Lane Limited and, after repositioning and
redesigning, Captain Black Tipped Cigars successfully entered numerous
countries worldwide. A year later, they began manufacturing Captain Black
Little Cigars, which quickly established themselves as a choice for a sweet and
smooth smoking experience, distinguished by their distinctive and recognizable
aroma that provides a memorable and enjoyable sensory experience.

Captain
Black Little Cigars are typically presented in packs of 20 units, featuring an
elegant and sophisticated design. They are slightly larger than traditional
cigarettes but smaller than standard cigars, using a high-quality natural
wrapper that contributes to even burning and a consistent smoking experience.
Each little
cigar, measuring 3? inches long with a ring gauge of 20, contains a wide range
of selected tobaccos from some of the world's most fertile regions, including
the Philippines, Indonesia, and the United States. Each piece is wrapped in a
tobacco-infused wrapper leaf, ensuring even combustion and a smooth finish.
