RoMa Craft Tobac Ships Gran Perfecto Extensions

This week, RoMa Craft Tobac has begun shipping half of its new Gran Perfecto line extensions to stores nationwide.

The company is starting by shipping four of its new 5 5/8 x 60 vitolas this week:

• Aquitaine Gran Perfecto (5 5/8 x 60) — $13.75 (Box of 10, $137.50)
• CroMagnon Gran Perfecto (5 5/8 x 60) — $14.50 (Box of 10, $145)
• Intemperance Whiskey Rebellion 1794 Gran Perfecto (5 5/8 x 60) — $12.85 (Box of 12, $154.20)
• Neanderthal Gran Perfecto (5 5/8 x 60) — $15 (Box of 15, $225)

Later this month, the Baka Gran Perfecto is scheduled to begin shipping. It will be followed by the two other Intemperance versions—BA XXI and EC XVII—next month. Finally, the Wunder|Lust will ship to international markets in September.

• Baka Gran Perfecto (5 5/8 x 60) — $16.20 (Box of 10, $162)
• Intemperance BA XXI Gran Perfecto (5 5/8 x 60) — $13 (Box of 12, $156)
• Intemperance EC XVII Gran Perfecto (5 5/8 x 60) — $12.70 (Box of 12, $152.40)
• Wunder|Lust Gran Perfecto (5 5/8 x 60) — €16.20 (Box of 10, €162)

All eight cigars were offered last year as part of the El Catador de los Gran Perfectos 10 Años samplers, which RoMa Craft Tobac sold as part of its planned WeaselFest 2020 event. Unfortunately, the company was forced to postpone the event until 2021. Despite delaying the event, the company sold and shipped the El Catador de los Gran Perfectos 10 Años to those who purchased tickets to the event last year and then sold the remaining boxes of the sampler during the event, which took place earlier this month.
