What's New

 

The Lost City OpusX Limited Edition humidor comes with 50 OpusX Lost City cigars.  The OpusX New Perfecto and Love Affair are only available in the humidor set.  Only 40 Green humidors were made, and only 60 of the Blue humidors are available.  Along with the cigars you also receive The Lost City DVD, a Prometheus digital hygrometer, and Humidifier.

 

 

 

You don't need to pick up a whole humidor set to get the new OpusX Lost City.  Five sizes are available in single cigars or boxes of 10. 

 

 

 

The humidors and cigars should be available around mid-October.

The only cutter you will ever need.  Xikar is know for their quality craftsmanship and their LIFETIME warranty.  Aside from losing the cutter you will never have to worry about your Xikar.  If the blade dulls, just send it in and Xikar will take care of it.  If you get a knick or a scratch, send it back to Xikar for a brand new cutter.  Xikar's customer service is top notch.  They are a bunch of cutters at many price points to choose from.   

 

In past years these have been known as the Journey to Chateau de la Fuente Sets.  They're now calling it The Fuente Story Set because each box comes with the autobiography of Don Carlos Fuente.  More importantly you get one each of: Don Arturo Gran Aniverxario, Don Caros Edicion de Aniversario Double Robusto, OpusX Tauros the Bull, and OpusX El Escorpion.

A new addition to the San Cristobal line, the San Cristobal Sun Grown is going to be a limited production line consisting of three sizes. The cigars feature a Nicaraguan Sun Grown wrapper.

 

These were some of the best new cigars I smoked at the trade show.

 

 

Here is what you get:

 

Rarities include: (1) Rising X, (1) BBMF, (1) BBMF Maduro, (3) Shark, (2) Scorpio, (1) Chilli Pepper, (2) ForbiddenX Lancero, (2) El Escorpion, (2) Love Affair, (2) LFMF. Regular release OpusX include: (2) Reserva d'Chateau, (2) Perfecxion X, and (1) Perfecxion No. 2

If you enjoyed the unbanded cigars in Litto's Perfecto Sampler you will be happy to know they are now part of a regular production line. The La Flor Dominicana Perfecto Habano sports a silky Habano wrapper that delivers an abundance of flavor.  The perfecto shape is what really makes these cigars shine.  The flavor profile is ever-changing as you work your way through the cigar. 

 

 

Great cigars in a really cool double-sided wood box.  These cigars feature a Dominican filler/binder blend made exclusively with tobaccos from Litto's farm in La Canela.  The wrapper is so beautiful, with a silky rosado hue.  It is a pristine spicy, Habano leaf.  The cigars measure 6 x 52.  Single cigars go for 8.25 and the box of 20 is $144.

I'm very excited to get these cigars in the shop.  I really loved what General Cigar did with Hoyo de Tradicion; I think these new La Escepcion will be just as great.   

 

 

Three sizes to choose from:

 

Batet (Figurado) (5 x 54)

$6.00/cigar

$105/box of 20

 

Excepcionales (5 1/2 x 50)

$6.00/cigar

$118.50/box of 22

 

Gran Gener (6 1/4 x 54)

$6.40/cigar

$126.50/box of 22

 

 

 

There are three blends in the HC Series.  I decided to bring in the medium and full bodies versions. 

 

If you were a fan of the popular Defiance line this is the cigar for you. Same blend, just a different band on it. A perfectly balanced, medium-bodied cigar. The dark, attractive Shade Grown Criollo wrapper aged 4 years is impeccable. This tasty cigar masterfully balances leathery flavors with pleasant tea intonations and Caramel notes!

 

Wrapped in a beautiful cocoa colored wrapper, the Habano Colorado is a smooth, rich tasting cigar with chocolate notes. The well aged tobacco makes for an interesting medium to full bodied cigar that is moderately strong with just a hint of sweetness.

 

 

 

The Edicion Inaugural is a limited edition cigar measuring 5 3/8 x 52. The filler/binder blend consists of aged Nicaraguan and Dominican tobaccos. The wrapper is a pristine Ecuadorian aged 3 years. Ernesto has exclusive rights to this beautiful Ecuadorian wrapper leaf so we are very excited to see his full line of regular production cigars when they are introduced in early 2010. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One of the first new cigars we have received from the trade show.  These cigars feature Nicaraguan filler, a Dominican binder, and a rich Habano wrapper. Very small quantities produced by a small group of rollers in Miami. 

 

These beautiful, well constructed humidors hold about 75 cigars.  Four branches of the military are represented: Army, Air Force, Marines, and Navy. 

 

 

All four styles are available now.
