Crux Cigars has announced that its Limitada PB5 has begun shipping again.

The Crux Limitada PB5 was shown off at the 2015 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show and began shipping last March. The cigar used a Nicaraguan Engañoso wrapper, a seed that Crux said is proprietary to the company. Underneath is a Connecticut broadleaf binder and Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers.

It was sold in a single 5 3/4 x 54 toro extra size with pricing set at $11.99.

All of those details remain the same for the version that is now shipping, known as the 2016 Second Release.

The only thing that is changing is production numbers, which have increased from 500 boxes of 10 cigars to 750 boxes of 10 cigars.

The 2017 version is known as the 2016 Second Release. 

Crux has another version of the blend formally shipping this week: the Crux Limitada Show Exclusive 2016, a 5 x 52 box-pressed robusto with a round cap. It is offered to retailers who purchased a certain amount of product at the 2016 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show.
