Malone is a collaborative effort between the NBA legend and La Aurora Cigars, Santiago,

“Guillermo and the wonderful people at La Aurora have been so kind to me and working with

them has been an amazing process. I’m really looking forward to enjoying this special blend,

aged in rum barrels, with as many people as I can in the coming months. Between La

Aurora’s commitment to excellence and my commitment to the same, I know this will be

special.”

distribution family” Jason Wood, Miami Cigar & Company Vice President added. “From day

one he’s been a pleasure to work with and fits right in to our family business atmosphere.”
