Black & Mild is a machine-made, pipe tobacco cigar. John Middleton Co., a tobacco company located in Limerick, Pennsylvania, produces them. As of November 2007, Altria, the parent company of Philip Morris purchased John Middleton, Inc.^[1]

Black & Milds have a wrapper made of homogenized pipe tobacco, and are sold with a plastic- or wood tip, untipped, in a shorter version called Shorts—which are about half of the size of regular Black & Milds—and also in filtered little cigar versions.

Black & Milds are sold in numerous different varieties, all of which are listed below.

The company recently coined the slogan, "Tastes great! Smells great!" due to the sweet smell that the smoke produces.
