Dunhill Aged Range Adds 6 x 60 Gigante Vitola

Dunhill has added a ninth vitola to their Aged Range, a 6 x 60 called the Gigante. The news was announced via Twitter by Serious Cigars, a retailer based in Houston, TX:


The Dunhill Aged Range Gigante is being sold by the store for $12.50 per stick and $112.50 for a box of 10. Like the rest of the Dunhill Aged Range, the Gigante uses a Connecticut-shade wrapper from the United States, a Dominican Olor binder and Dominican filler. It is being made at the General Cigar Dominicana factory in Santiago.

The Dunhill Aged Range, otherwise known as the “Blue Label” series, now has nine vitolas:

  • Altamiras – 5 x 48 (Tubed)
  • Cabreras – 7 x 48 (Tubed)
  • Condados – 6 x 48
  • Diamantes – 6 5/8 x 42
  • Peravias – 7 x 50
  • Romanos – 4 1/2 x 50
  • Samanas – 6 1/2 x 38
  • Tabaras – 5 9/16 x 42 (Tubed)
  • Valverdes – 5 1/2 x 42
  • Gigantes – 6 x 60

As part of its move to being produced and distributed by General Cigar Co., the Dunhill Aged Range received a new look in spring 2012, adding a more modern band design in place of the traditional script logo. The revamped line first debuted at Club Macanudo in New York on May 17, 2012, and began shipping to retailers in June. MSRPs for the cigar range between $8 – $14 per cigar.

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 Major League Baseball, 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.
