Cuban Stock Cigar Co. will be expanding their Chubbys line this summer as they plan to launch a new trio of cigars called Boss at the 2014 IPCPR Convention and Trade Show happening this July in Las Vegas.

The Boss line will debut in three sizes, a 7 x 60 called The Chairman, a 6 x 56 called The CEO and a 5 x 56 called The VP. Prices are slated to be $9.40 for The VP, $9.80 for The CEO and $10.20 for The Chairman, with each size coming in 20-count boxes. Production for this new regular production line is being handled by the Cuban Stock Cigar Co. Factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic.

The blend is comprised of Dominican-grown tobacco from Cuban seeds, described as being made with “select, premium aged tobacco” that deliver “a cigar with a lot of character; bold & smooth yet refined.”

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for MLB.com, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
