Crux Epicure Habano Shipping Next Week
Nearly a year after it was first announced, the Crux Epicure Habano is ready to start shipping to stores next week.
The Epicure Habano uses the same internal blend as the other two Epicure lines—the binder and fillers are from Nicaragua—and it is topped off by a habano seco wrapper, also from Nicaragua. Like most Crux blends, it is made at Plasencia Cigars S.A. in Estelí, Nicaragua.
“The Habano will complete the Epicure trifecta and we couldn’t be more excited for this cigar to get in the hands of customers across the country.” said Jeff Haugen, president of Crux Cigar, in a press release. “We are blessed to work with Plasencia Family making some of the highest quality cigars in the world and the Habano is no exception.”
Pricing has increased by about $1 per cigar since the cigar was announced last July:
- Crux Epicure Habano Corona Gorda (5 3/8 x 46) — $11.25 (Box of 20, $225)
- Crux Epicure Habano Robusto (5 x 50) – $11.99 (Box of 20, $239.80)
- Crux Epicure Habano Toro (6 1/4 x 52) — $13.49 (Box of 20, $269.80)
- Crux Epicure Habano Gordo (6 x 60) — $14.49 (Box of 20, $289.80)
