Kristoff Releasing Two New Lines and Show Exclusive at PCA 2023

The 2023 PCA Convention & Trade Show is just a few days away, and Kristoff has announced that it will be unveiling two new regular production lines at the event, as well as a limited-edition that will only be offered to attendees of the event.

For retailers attending the show, Kristoff has its PCA 2023 Signature Series, a 6 1/4 x 54 box-pressed toro that uses a Brazilian maduro wrapper, a Dominican binder and a filler of Dominican and Nicaraguan tobacco. It is priced at $12 per cigar and $240 for a box of 20 cigars. Production is limited to 1,000 boxes.

As for the other two lines, Kristoff is leaning heavily into Nicaraguan tobacco, as both the Kristoff Nicaragua and Kristoff Tres Compadres are Nicaraguan puros, though the company hasn’t yet disclosed specifics or what makes the two cigars different. All the company has said thus far is that it “sourced the finest tobaccos from Estelí, Jalapa and Condega for the wrapper, binder and filler” of both blends.

Both blends are being offered in the same three sizes and at the same price points: a 5 x 50 robusto priced at $9.50, a 6 1/4 x 54 toro priced at $10.50, and a 6 x 60 priced at $10.75. Both lines are offered in 20-count boxes.

All three of Kristoff’s new releases are produced at Tabacalera Von Eicken in the Dominican Republic, the factory formerly known as Charles Fairmorn. The company has not set a firm shipping date, but said it hopes to have them shipping to stores in August or September.
