Three of the four planned extensions to Reinado’s Grand Empire Reserve Collection have begun shipping according to the company’s founder Antonio Lam. As we announced back in April, the company added a Corona Gorda, Toro, Gordo and limited edition Petit Lancero the 5 x 55 Elegidos that debuted at the 2012 IPCPR trace show and convention. All of those sizes have shipped, except the Gordo (6 x 60) which is still in development.

Since then, Lam has indicated that he is working on both Connecticut and Maduro lines.
