News: New Sizes and Special Offerings by General Cigar Co.

New Sizes and Special Offerings.

Macanudo Inspirado White Robusto Tubo

Macanudo Inspirado White was one of the biggest hits of IPCPR last year, with high post-show ratings to back up the hype. The momentum of this critically-acclaimed line shows no signs of slowing down. New for this year, the brand welcomes its first new vitola, a classic robusto in a protective tube. With bold branding elements, the white and silver tubo is both eye-catching and practical, making it easy for cigar lovers to enjoy this deeply-aged, flavorful smoke on nearly any occasion. Macanudo Inspirado White Robusto Tubo (5” x 50); SRP per cigar is $7.49; 20 cigars per box.

Macanudo Inspirado Black Tubo

Like its sister brand, Macanudo Inspirado Black made waves when it debuted last year. Buzz for this brand permeated the handmade cigar category, with media exposure in luxury publications including Robb Report and Worth.  New for this year is a handsome robusto-sized tubo. Its impressive black and silver design signals the peppery indulgence that lies within and sets the stage for the unforgettable smoking experience that can only be had with this Nicaraguan-forward blend. Macanudo Inspirado Black Robusto Tubo (4.875” x 48); SRP per cigar is $7.99; 20 cigars per box.

Cohiba Sartorial Collection

Just as true connoisseurs surround themselves in the finest made-to-order items, the Cohiba Sartorial Collection is inspired by the quest to have what is unattainable to most. The artistry that comes with expert blending and the personal style that is cultivated with understated pops of luxury are on full display in this limited edition offering.  Featured within the Cohiba Sartorial Collection are two unique blends representing Cohiba’s commitment to complex flavor and flawless construction, along with a pair of gunmetal cufflinks with the brand’s signature “Red Dot” logo enameled in the center.

Contained within the pack are two cigars of a blend called X2. The 6” x 52 cigars feature a rich, sungrown Cameroon wrapper aged for five years. Beneath the rare wrapper is a Mexican San Andres binder, and a blend of hand-selected Brazilian and Dominican tobaccos. The binder and filler are fermented for four months before undergoing an additional six months of aging in rum barrels. The result is a bold, earthy and aromatic smoke.

The two additional cigars contained within are a refined and elegant Dominican puro called D3. This blend was born from the organic soils of the island’s Cibao and Northwestern agricultural growing regions. The vitolas measure 6” x 54 to maximize the smoking experience which delivers earthy notes and a subtle undercurrent of sweetness.

This limited edition offer will be available for a suggested retail price of $79.99. Four cigars and one pair of cufflinks are included within.
