Earlier this week, four sizes of a Connecticut-wrapped Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial began arriving in brick and mortar stores in New England as part of the newest limited release from My Father Cigars. It features the same fillers from the regular Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial with the Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper that was used on the special version of the 2011 Limited Edition and on the My Father Le Bijou 1922 Federal Cigar 91st Cervantes.

The four sizes are Belicoso, Petit Robusto, Toro and Toro Gordo, all in the same dimension and priced the same as their Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial counterparts. There are 250 boxes of 20 cigars for each of the four sizes, making for a total production of 20,000 cigars.

According to Jeremy Soares, the sales representative for My Father in the New England region, 13 stores have received them as of now and a couple more will receive their shipment brining the total retailers to 15.
