Another IPCPR Convention & Trade Show, another L’Atelier Extension de la Racine.

For the last three years, as an incentive for retailers to visit the company’s booth, L’Atelier Imports has released an exclusive cigar—Racine—available only to those who place an order during the annual trade show.

This year, the company is releasing a lonsdale version of the Racine blend.

The L’Atelier Extension de la Racine ER15 measures 6 3/4 x 43 featuring the same blend as previous years meaning a Nicaraguan sun grown criollo wrapper over Nicaraguan fillers, including some Sancti Spiritus tobacco.

Pete Johnson of L’Atelier Imports told halfwheel that this year’s release is limited to 1,500 boxes of 20. Suggested pricing is set at $9.25 per cigar and it is expected to begin shipping around October.
