MDC + Warped
Why MDC stocks Warped
Warped is a name that walks in with the customer. People who follow boutique cigars know Kyle Gellis and know these blends, so when a box lands in your humidor it tends to find its buyer without much selling. That is the whole value of carrying a brand like this: it tells regulars that your humidor is being paid attention to.
MDC carries 4 active Warped SKUs, covering La Hacienda in the First Growth, Gran Robusto and Superiores sizes plus La Colmena Amado #44. That is a tight, intentional set rather than a wall of options, which is how this brand is meant to be shopped. Your rep can help you pick the one or two shapes that suit your floor.
“Warped is in our standing rotation because the accounts we serve - from casinos to cigar bars - sell through it consistently. That's the only reason a brand stays on our line card.”
Core Line-up
Warped blends MDC distributes
Not every SKU in the Warped catalog is in our standing rotation - we curate to what actually moves at retail. These are the core lines we keep in depth.
02
Core Line
La Hacienda Gran Robusto
The thicker robusto format of the line, an easy recommendation for the customer who wants a shorter but substantial smoke.
03
Core Line
La Hacienda Superiores
A longer format in the same blend, 25 to the box, suited to lounges and bars where guests sit a while.
04
Core Line
La Colmena Amado #44
From the La Colmena line, packed 10 to the box, a smaller commitment for a venue testing Warped for the first time.
Venue Fit
Which venues stock Warped
Warped works best where somebody behind the counter can talk about it. Dedicated cigar lounges, cigar bars and upscale hotel bars are the natural homes, since the guest paying boutique prices usually wants a recommendation with some substance behind it. Steakhouses with a small curated humidor can use La Hacienda as the house boutique pick. It is a higher ticket catalog, so volume driven accounts should start with the La Colmena 10 count before committing to full 25 count boxes.
The retail margin math for Warped
MDC's active Warped SKUs run roughly $178 to $254 per box wholesale, and venues typically retail at 1.8x to 2.5x wholesale. The 10 count La Colmena box is the low risk way in, while the 25 count La Hacienda boxes carry the per stick price that a boutique name supports in a lounge setting.
How to build a Warped program with MDC
The MDC approach to any brand is the same: start with a curated core rotation sized to your venue, prove sell-through, then layer in deeper SKU coverage as the account matures. For a typical hospitality account, a Warped program begins with 2–3 vitolas across 40–60 cigars of opening depth, paired with the other brands that complement your overall humidor structure.
Because Warped is one of the core workhorse brands in the category, it's almost always part of the MDC opening-proposal for any new account - the exact SKUs and depth vary by whether you're running a bar-led hospitality program, a dedicated cigar lounge, or a pro-shop display. Your rep builds the proposal fast once you apply, with real numbers keyed to your venue.
