It was the second year of seeing RoMa Craft Tobac at IPCPR, and the booth was as busy as ever. It had an authentic feel, some tasty beverages, and a pair of cigars that had most people stopping to stare.
First, one of the stop and stare cigars, the CroMagnon Femur, 10 x 133 1/3, proportional to the Mandible and fully smokeable.
The debut of the Craft line was on the top shelf of the display case. Read more about La Campaña de Panamá Soberana here and here.
The trio of the CroMagnon Venus, Mode 5 and Blockhead shared the next shelf The CroMagnon Blockhead is a box-pressed version of the 6 x 54 Cranium that started out as event-only before being added to regular production, as it’s headed to Tower Cigars and Tobacco Grove.
The Venus is a store exclusive for R. Field Wine Co. in Hawaii that will be released on Sept. 14.
The Mode 5 started as a 5 x 50 event-only cigar but was put into regular production back in late March.
Beyond that, look for bands coming to RoMaCraft’s Aquitaine, CroMagnon and Intemperance offerings. On the CroMagnon, it’s a two part band that you can peel apart to find some lightly embossed cave drawings.
