Turns out there will be three new lines from Tabacos Costa Nicaragua S.A. (Tabacosta). The company will also be adding Manuel Alonso Gran Selección.

The two-vitola line uses an Ecuadorian habano wrapper, a habano binder and filler tobaccos from Jalapa, Nicaragua.

It’s offered in Conde (4.7 x 60, $6.26) and Duques (5 x 56, $6.32) sizes, both sold in boxes of 10.

Tabacosta was founded in 2012, originally based in Panama, the company moved to Estelí in 2014. It currently has 200 employees and claims to sell 1.8 million cigars annually with distribution in various countries around the world.
