For the first time in a few years, Nat Sherman International has new products. There are two new limited edition cigars, a new line of ashtrays and most importantly, a life-size cut-out of Michael Herklots.

The aforementioned Herklots cut out is one of a few in Las Vegas. I personally think that it should be sent to our office and join our 9/10ths replica of Manuel “Manolo” Quesada Jr. As for the booth, it was otherwise the same, although not affected by a fire this year.

Nat Sherman Epoca Limited Edition 2019

One of two new limited edition cigars from Nat Sherman International. This one is a Nicaraguan puro from Plasencia Cigars S.A.

  • Wrapper: Nicaragua
  • Binder: Nicaragua
  • Filler: Nicaragua
  • Nat Sherman Epoca Limited Edition 2019 (6 x 52) — $15 (Box of 10, $150)

Nat Sherman Timeless Limited Edition 2019

I’m much more interested in this Timeless Limited Edition 2019 for a number of reasons. The five-count box is rather unique and the blend itself, particularly the dark Dominican wrapper is also unique.

  • Wrapper: Dominican Republic (Colorado Oscuro)
  • Binder: Dominican Republic
  • Filler: Dominican Republic & Nicaragua
  • Nat Sherman Timeless Limited Edition 2019 (6 x 50) — $17 (Box of 5, $85)

Production: 5,000 Boxes of 5 Cigars (25,000 Total Cigars)

Release Date: August 2019

Nat Sherman Ashtrays

The company has also updated its ashtray offerings. Previously they were branded as simply Nat Sherman, but now the company’s individual brands get their own items. The Metropolitan versions are priced at $45.95, while the Epoca and Timeless are $54.95.

These are already shipping to stores.
