JRE Tobacco Co. says it is reaching into the Eiroa family archives for its new Aladino Limited Edition.
The 6 x 52 toro uses a Cameroon-seed wrapper grown on the Eiroa farms in Honduras along with binder and filler tobaccos that is described as “other Honduran tobacco of undisclosed origins,” all grown by the Eiroa family. Perhaps most interestingly, the company is hinting that this is a preview of what’s to come.
“This cigar is a precursor to one of several larger personal projects from our archive and we are excited to begin sharing them in the near future,” said the company in a press release. “As always, we were looking to have a cigar that has high complexity in flavor but at the same time is contemporary for our smokers. The slightly ambiguous description of this cigar invites smokers to discover the mystical joy of our blending journey.”
The MSRP for the Aladino Limited Edition is set at $16 per cigar and production is limited to 600 boxes of 20 cigars. It will be available for order only to retailers that place orders during the 2023 PCA Convention & Trade Show, which takes place July 8-11 in Las Vegas.
