Summary

KingPin Cigarettes, Inc. d/b/a Blackhat Vapor Company was cited for manufacturing and distributing e-liquid tobacco products containing nicotine without required premarket authorization from the FDA. The company failed to comply with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act requirements applicable to tobacco products, particularly following the March 2022 legislative expansion of FDA jurisdiction to include all nicotine-containing products regardless of nicotine source. The inspection found the products were being offered for sale or distribution in the United States without the legally mandated premarket authorization necessary for new tobacco products to enter the market.
