After a three-year legal battle over the trademark, Alberto Medina has brought the PIO VI cigar back to the market. Now he is trying to re-establish his brand with the new limited-edition Overture Series 1996 commemorating the year PIO VI was created. Medina said the Overture Series will be limited to 600 boxes. The cigars are produced in Miami and comprises an Ecuadoran wrapper and binder, in addition to filler from Nicaragua, Brazil and the Dominican Republic. They are medium bodied.
