At the upcoming Tobacco Plus Expo (TPE) in Las Vegas, AGANORSA Leaf will be unveiling Supreme Leaf, a new, colorful addition to its portfolio.

The cigar is a Nicaraguan puro that has a corojo 99 dominant blend, according to the company, who says the goal of the cigar is to “excite the palate with a complex balance of mouthwatering sweetness and potent spice.”

“We believe our leaf is our strength and so we wanted the presentation clearly to reflect that confidence in the quality of our cigars,” said Terence Reilly, vice president of sales and marketing, via a press release. “The packaging has a bold and assertive look and feel that demands the consumer’s attention on the shelf. You don’t use colors like this unless you are confident in the product,” he added.

Supreme Leaf will be released in a single, 5 x 52 box pressed robusto vitola that will be priced at $9.95. The company is offering it 10-count boxes, with 500 boxes being produced for the initial run. The cigar will begin shipping in February.

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, the G-League's Valley Suns, 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.
