Cuban Stock Cigar Co. has announced a number of new sizes and packaging options as well as a new infused line that will be debuting at the upcoming IPCPR Convention & Trade Show.

Cuban Stock Boss Director

A pair of new vitolas are heading to the company’s Chubbys line; the original line is adding a 7 x 70 dubbed the Gato Fat Cat that will have an MSRP of $8.90 and will be available in both the maduro and Ecuadorian sun grown versions, while the Chubbys Boss line adds the Director, a 6 x 66 gordo that sells for $9.90. Both are expected to begin shipping in late July.

The 231 Rockhill line is getting the Doble D, a 5 x 48 Cuban robusto that will have an MSRP of $5.20 and should be shipping by early August. The company is billing it as having “just enough power for a half hour smoke.”

Cuban Stock Everyday Joe Working

The company’s budget-friendly lines are also getting some new additions and packaging formats, as the Everyday Joe line has recently added a 7 x 70 called the Jambo in both the maduro and corojo wrappers with a price of around $5.50 per cigar.

The Gran Almirante, Orange Label and Cuban Stock Private Selection, all of which have been bundle lines, will be getting bright boxes while maintaining a single stick price of between three to five dollars. A limited selection has already begun to roll out to retail, with a full release slated for early August.

Cuban Stock Delicioso Elevation box

Finally, a new infused cigar will come out under the Delicioso line as the Elevation is scheduled to begin shipping by early August. It’s a Dominican blend with a Havana seed corojo wrapper and a floral infusion and will come in four sizes, named for their length and ring gauge: the 444 ($4.40), 548 ($5), 556 ($5.40) and 656 ($5.80).

All of the new cigars are being made at Cuban Stock’s factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic.

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 and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for MLB.com, 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.
