Phillies is a brand of cigar in the United States. They were originally made in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from which the brand takes its name. Phillies cigars, originally produced by Bayuk Cigars, Inc.,[1] are presently manufactured by ITG Brands, the American subsidiary of British conglomerate Imperial Brands.[2]
The original cigar, introduced by the Bayuk brothers[3] in 1910, was named the "Philadelphia Hand Made" and often shortened by the smoking public to "Phillies", a nickname that eventually became the brand name.[4] Phillies sizes include Black Max, Blunt, Cheroot, Cigarillo, Mexicali Slim, Mini Blunt, Panatella, Perfecto, Sweet, Tip, Titan and Phillies Finest.
Phillies Blunt flavors include banana, berry, chocolate aroma, coffee, coconut, cognac, greene de menthe, honey, mango, peach, piña colada, rum, sambuca, sour apple, strawberry, sweet vanilla, sugar, tequila, watermelon, grape, and cinnamon.
