Here’s one more news item from my friend Antonio at Reinado Cigars. Why all the news while I’m sitting on my balcony overlooking the ocean trying to relax with nothing but an iPhone to publish content with? Gotta head to the beach and light up a cigar…
Reinado Cigars will begin shipping the new Grand Apex 6 X 60 in February. Production will be at Aganorsa’s TABSA factory in Nicaragua. It joins the current Robusto Extra, which measures 5.5 x 52.
“Early indications of success for this blend have provided the leverage required to expand the Grand Apex product line,” said Antonio Lam, owner of Reinado Premium Cigars, in a press release. “The quality of tobacco included from Aganorsa Leaf in our blend has created a buzz on social media as well as brick and mortar retail shops.
The robusto extra has also been included among reputable brands on several Top Cigars of 2021 lists. We’re happy to have such positive responses to the robusto extra and are thrilled to be releasing a larger vitola for the consumers wanting more of the rich notes
found in the blend.”
The Grand Apex blend utilizes a San Andres wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and fillers. The 6 X 60 size will have an MSRP of $12.75 per cigar. Production will be initially 3,000 cigars in 15-count boxes. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Dementia Society of America.
