Nat Sherman has announced that two new vitolas will be added to the Dominican version of the company’s Timeless Collection line, a Robusto (4 3/4 x 50, $7.50) and a Gordo (6 x 60, $8.75).

Both new sizes will come in 20-count boxes and will be on display at this month’s IPCPR Convention & Trade Show happening July 25-28 in Las Vegas, Nev. Shipping of the new sizes is expected to begin shortly after the show concludes.

The Nat Sherman Timeless Collection debuted at the company’s Townhouse in New York at the end of 2011 before spreading nationwide in early 2012, and uses a Honduran wrapper over Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers with a Dominican binder, with production handled by Quesada Cigars at the company’s factory in Licey, Dominican Republic. It debuted in four sizes, Churchill (7 x 48), Hermoso (5 1/4 x 54), No. 2 (6 1/4 x 52) and No. 5 (3 3/4 x 43), before adding two more sizes that summer, Especiales (6 x 38) and Divinos (5 x 32/50/36). A Super Lancero (8 x 38) was added at the end of 2013, and an unreleased vitola called No. 16 (7 x 50/33) was created for Michael Herklots’ annual birthday celebration and fundraiser in 2012.

A Nicaraguan version of the Timeless Collection was introduced at the 2012 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show.

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.
