Boutique Blends Bringing Back Oliveros Name, Plans Collaboration With Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr.
The Oliveros name, which was phased out in 2012, is back.
Sales information obtained by halfwheel show two different cigars under the Oliveros name, Oliveros Gran Retorno and Oliveros All Stars.
The latter is said to be a project with Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr. of E.P. Carrillo/Tabacalera La Alianza S.A.
Rafael Nodal, owner of Boutique Blends/Aging Room/Oliveros, did not return multiple phone calls seeking comment. An official for E.P. Carrillo declined to comment.
Both lines are expected to debut at the 2016 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show which begins July 25 in Las Vegas.
