Federal Cigar Announces My Father Le Bijou 1922 Grand Robusto

Federal Cigar in New Hampshire has announced that they are adding a new vitola of the My Father Le Bijou 1922 Connecticut Edition to their collection of exclusive cigars, a 5 5/8 x 55 Grand Robusto.

The store made the announcement via an email to their customer mailing list that went out late Thursday evening and included this photo of the cigar:

According to the email, the store has received a sample bundle and expects the first shipment to arrive in late May. Pricing has not been announced at this time, nor has box count, though the rest of the My Father Le Bijou 1922 line has come packed in 23-count boxes.

In March, the store celebrated its 92nd anniversary and announced the My Father Cigars Federal Cigar Special F, which is based on the event-only My Father S Special. They also added the E.P. Carrillo Federal Cigar 92nd Anniversary Medalla D’Oro and the Tatuaje Federal 90th Redux.

This will be the fourth size in the My Father Le Bijou line to be exclusive to Federal Cigar, as they also have the 6 1/2 x 44 Cervantes, the 5 5/8 x 46 Corona Gorda and a 4 1/2 x 50 Petit Robusto. There was also a My Father Le Bijou 1922 Connecticut and maduro released in 2012 to celebrate the store’s 91st anniversary.

 

Update (June 24, 2013): The original post was titled “Grand Corona” instead of “Grand Robusto.” In addition, as of June 19, these are in stock at Federal Cigar.
