RoMa Craft Tobac Announces CRAFT 2018
RoMa Craft Tobac’s limited edition CRAFT Series will get its latest entry next month.
While the series has been dormant since 2014, the concept picks up right where it left off. The 5 x 60 figurado uses the same internal blend as Neanderthal—fillers from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Pennsylvania—underneath a binder that Skip Martin, co-owner of RoMa Craft, described as “our thickest Ecuadorian habano ligero.”
CRAFT 2018 uses two different wrappers: Pennsylvania broadleaf maduro and Ecuadorian Connecticut “dark candela,” which can be seen at the top and bottom of the cigar.
“Each component has been utilized and positioned in the blend deliberately tasked with a specific objective to deliver in the effort to harmonize the aspects of combustion, aroma, strength and flavor,” said Martin in an Instagram post.
CRAFT 2018 is limited to 2,000 numbered boxes of 10 with pricing set at $15 per cigar.
This is the third release of the CRAFT Series following the original La Campaña de Panamá Soberana and WitchCraft, which was produced for the Cali Mega Herf in 2014.
Martin said the cigars should begin shipping to retailers in mid-March.
