RoMa Craft Tobac has announced that the Neanderthal SGP, a 4 1/4 x 52 petit robusto, will become the second regular production size for the line.

SGP was originally released last year, limited to 250 boxes of 15 cigar as an exclusive for Riverside Cigar Shop and Lounge of Jeffersonville, Ind. and Serious Cigars of Houston, Texas. Now the cigar will be offered to all accounts at the 2016 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show.

The Neanderthal blend uses a Mexican San Andrés wrapper, Connecticut broadleaf binder and filler tobaccos from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Pennsylvania, including “Green River Sucker One” double ligero from Pennsylvania.

Suggested retail pricing for SGP is $9. It will continue to be sold in 15-count boxes.

There are two other limited versions of Neanderthal and the upcoming the Neanderthal OM, a lancero expected to debut next month.

The 2016 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show begins July 25 in Las Vegas, Nev.
