JRE Tobacco Co.

For the first time ever, the Aladino Cameroon, Classic, Connecticut, Corojo and Vintage Selection blends are offered in a box-pressed format. JRE says these samplers are a limited edition item for the holiday season.

The Aladino Limited Edition, a 6 x 52 toro that was released last year, returns for 2024. JRE says all of the tobacco inside was aged between 5-6 years.

A Cameroon-seed puro sounds like the wildest dream of some cigar smokers, myself included. JRE Tobacco Co. did just that, though the tobacco is grown in Honduras, with the cigar the latest evolution of JRE’s continued development of the crop.

There were 600 boxes of the Aladino Limited Edition released last year, there will be 1,200 heading to stores next month. A bit of good news for consumers: the price remains the same.

Trey Mac Shipley has spent more than four years at JRE Tobacco Co. Going forward, he will lead the company’s national sales efforts.

JRE Tobacco Co. says the binder and fillers come from the company’s farms in Honduras, though there’s no information on where the wrapper was grown.

The first eight out of the roughly 125 cigars slated to receive the Aladino Cameroon Reserva will get the cigars next week.

The cigar is made entirely of Cameroon-seed tobaccos grown by the Eiroa family in Honduras.

You should smoke the Aladino Fuma Noche at night.

The new 6 1/2 x 60 size will be on shelves this month.

The Aladino Candela Toro is limited, but all JRE Tobacco Co. retailers will have the opportunity to purchase the new size.
