The 2015 Edición Regional for Germany has landed in the country and is almost ready for release.

It’s the La Gloria Cubana Glorias, a 180mm (7 1/11 inches) x 54 double pirámides, made for the German market.

Christoph Puszkar—director of marketing for 5th Avenue, the German distributor for Cuban cigars—told halfwheel the cigars have arrived in Germany but it’s still unclear when they will hit store shelves. The first order of business for new Cuban cigars will be the Romeo y Julieta Capuletos, which is likely to be released in Germany next week.

Suggested retail pricing is €19.10 ($21.30) per cigar and it is limited to 6,000 numbered boxes of 10 cigars.

The Glorias is the 2015 Edición Regional for Germany, as is often the case with Edición Regionals, the cigar will not come out until year after the one associated with the release. The Bolívar Tesero is the German exclusive for the 2016 program.
