Sans Pareil has begun shipping the final installment in its Cabinet Series, the Blue Lonsdale.

It measures 6 1/2 x 42, and like the other sizes in the line, the Lonsdale is a Dominican puro that uses a criollo wrapper. Each cabinet contains 50 cigars, and brand owner Aaron Saide to halfwheel that he was able to produce 25 of the cabinets, though he did say a few more may be able to be released after doing an additional round of quality control.

The Sans Pareil Blue Lonsdale is priced at $30 per stick and $1,500 per cabinet, before taxes. It is being produced at Tabacalera Palma in Tamboril, Dominican Republic.

It joins the three regular addition production sizes in the line:

  • Sans Pareil Blue Petite Corona (4 x 42) — $15 (Box of 15, $225)
  • Sans Pareil Blue Piramide (6 1/8 x 52) — $40 (Box of 15, $600)
  • Sans Pareil Blue Toro (6 x 52) — $30 (Box of 10, $300)

Additionally, the Blue Line received a Lancero vitola in October 2018 as part of the company’s Lancero Collection.

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 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.
