Press Release: Nomad Cigar Company Releases Two New S-307 Sizes

January 6, 2014 (Estelí, Nicaragua)–Nomad Cigar Company is pleased to announce the release of two additional sizes to the S-307 cigar line.

The S-307, a box pressed Sumatra wrapped cigar, was originally released in late 2013 in three sizes and enjoyed significant success from the start – landing on several “Best of 2013” lists.

The initial sizes in 2013 were:

• Toro (6×50)
• Robusto (5×50) and
• Torpedo (6 1/2 x 52)

The two new 2014 sizes available in the S-307 line are:

• 6 x 58 and
• Corona (5.5 x 44)

“I am really excited about the response to the S-307 and glad to provide two additional sizes in the line. With quality tobacco, five different size choices, and a great price point, I feel that we hit the target on this line,” said Rewey.

Nomad Cigar Company launched in 2012 with four sizes of classic hand rolled Dominican cigars and quickly grew the [DR] line to seven sizes. In January 2013 founder Fred Rewey ventured to Nicaragua; blending and creating the Estelí Lot 1386 and the S-307.

The S-307 is Nomad’s first “full production” Nicaraguan cigar. It was blended and produced at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez. The “S” in the name stands for “Sumatra” while the “307” is in reference to the approximate square miles of Estelí, Nicaragua.

Both new sizes (as well as the original sizes) are in stock and shipping immediately.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury, the G-League's Valley Suns, and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
