Noel Rojas's Day of the Dead release for 2026 — a 6 x 52 box-pressed Toro with a dark Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, limited to 1,500 boxes worldwide.
The Street Tacos line has become one of Rojas Cigars' most watched release series — each limited edition built around a specific food or holiday, each one landing in strict allocation and almost never seeing a second run. Mictlán is the 2026 Day of the Dead edition, named for the Aztec underworld — the realm of the dead at the heart of Día de los Muertos tradition. True to the holiday, it's the darkest, most dramatic Street Taco Rojas has released: a box-pressed Toro wearing a deep Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, with Nicaraguan tobacco and Connecticut Broadleaf doing the structural work underneath.

Why Mictlán
Mictlán sits at the center of Mexica cosmology — the deepest layer of the underworld, where souls completed a four-year journey after death. For Día de los Muertos it's the symbolic destination, and Noel Rojas picked it as the thematic anchor for this release precisely because it isn't light or decorative. The darker Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, the heavier Broadleaf-driven filler, and the firm box press are all choices built to match the weight of the name.
Tasting Profile
Medium–Full body across the burn. The dark Ecuadorian Habano wrapper pushes toward richer, deeper notes than the earlier Street Tacos releases, with the Broadleaf-and-Nicaragua filler adding structure and length to the finish. Built to pair with the kind of late-fall and winter drinks the season brings out — darker beers, bourbon, mezcal.
Why This One Matters
The Street Tacos program is small-batch by design, and 1,500 boxes is the entire worldwide run. The Cinco de Mayo editions have been the series' flagship for three years running — Mictlán is Noel's answer on the opposite end of the calendar, built with the same construction standards but a very different mood. When the allocation is spent, it is spent until the next thematic release.
