Gary Griffith tweeted he expects the AF Suave to land at the Emilio warehouse early next week, followed by a release of the newest A.J. Fernandez/Griffith release shortly thereafter.

Emilio AF Suave Tweet

The five sizes of Suave are expected to be Emilio’s mildest release, the latest in an obvious trend of traditionally stronger manufacturers venturing into the larger market of mild cigars. Griffith recently provided an extensive status update for his portfolio.

Suave was originally anticipated as a February/March release, but has been characterized as a “late June” release for the past few months.
