Last year, actor Chazz Palminteri introduced Sonny, a limited-edition release that was part of his \u2018A Bronx Tale\u2019<\/a> cigar brand. The new size was named after the charismatic, but deadly, mafioso he played in the film. Now, there\u2019s more Sonny<\/a> for cigar smokers, as Palminteri has expanded it into a full line. Formally known as Chazz Palminteri\u2019s A Bronx Tale Sonny by Epic Cigar, it began shipping to retailers last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When comparing the new cigars to the original, there are some differences. The most obvious is that the new cigars are round, whereas the limited edition was box-pressed. The blend is different too, but it\u2019s less obvious. On paper, they both consist of dark, Mexican San Andr\u00e9s maduro wrapper with a Dominican binder and Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers but the leaves used in the new line aren\u2019t as old as those found on the limited edition. The new cigars were blended to be medium-to-full-bodied.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Made in the Dominican Republic at the Charles Fairmorn factory, Sonny is available in four sizes: Robusto, measuring 5 inches by 52 ring gauge ($13.65); Toro, 6 by 54 ($13.85); Torpedo, 6 by 52 ($14.10); and Gordo, 6 by 60 ($14.50). All ship in boxes of 20.<\/p>\n

Sonny is one of two regular-production lines for \u2018A Bronx Tale,\u2019 following Calogero, named after the film\u2019s protagonist. As for the limited edition, called Chazz Palminteri\u2019s A Bronx Tale Sonny by Epic Cigar Limited Edition Toro, you can still find them for sale. In a blind tasting published in February in Cigar Insider, the limited-edition Sonny Toro \u201cpassed the door test\u201d with a score of 91 points.<\/p>\n
