At this week’s Intertabac Trade Fair in Dortmund, Germany, Maya Selva Cigars will show off its Limited Edition Year of the Pig.

As the name implies, the cigar is being made in honor of the upcoming Year of the Pig, the next year on the Chinese zodiac calendar.

The cigar is a 6 x 52 toro that uses a habano wrapper from Jamastran, Honduran. It sits over top a binder from Jalapa, Nicaragua and fillers from both Honduras and Nicaragua. It is being sold in 19-count boxes. Pricing in Germany will be €19 ($22.05).

Maya Shelva Cigars says it will begin shipping the release on Nov. 18, 2018.

Production is limited to 900 boxes.
