NEW THIS WEEK:

Perdomo Double Aged 12-Year Vintage Connecticut!

Top of the charts! This week’s hottest commodity is the latest from the señores y señoras at Tabacalera Perdomo: The Connecticut line of their new 12-Year Vintage series!These cigars are absolutely fantastic. Crafted of fine tobaccos from their 2001/2002 crop that have been aged a further two years in white oak bourbon barrels, the flavor from these sticks is indescribably delicious, especially with the addition of a buttery Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper.

As if that wasn’t enough, the Connecticut blend represents only the first release in this series; a Sun-Grown version will become available in September, and a Maduro version in November.

We’ve got all four sizes in stock: the 5″ x 56 Robusto, the 6″ x 56 Epicure, the 7″ x 56 Churchill, and the 6 1/2″ x 60 Gordo Extra.

Don’t miss out! These are already going fast. Come down and try a few before they’re all gone…which won’t take long!

ALSO NEW:

The CAO Colombia Series!

New from CAO is the Colombia series, a pleasantly mild blend of rare tobaccos including a Colombian Cuban-seed varietal called Ica Mazinga, sourced from a remote, mountainous region called Montes de Maria.In the words of CAO blender Rick Rodriguez, “We especially liked the way the Colombian tobacco was complemented by a touch of Brazilian Mata Fina. With a Nicaraguan Jamastran wrapper and Cameroon binder, CAO Colombia delivers a unique flavor experience unlike anything else we’ve ever released.”

This unusual combination makes for a very enjoyable smoke, particularly as a “breakfast” cigar. We’ve got four sizes available: The Bogotá (6” x 60), theMagdalena (a 6.25” x 54 torpedo), the Vallenato (5” x 56), and the Tinto (5” x 50).

A great cigar! Make sure to try one next time you’re in!

THIS JUST IN:

Illusione *G* GIGANTES!

You know those Illusione Rothchildes you adore? The tasty little fellas with the red band? Well, their big brother has just arrived!

Fresh off the boat: The Illusione *G* Gigantes feature a similar blend to that of their popular sibling, albeit a “deeper and fuller” blend than the Rothchildes. According to Illusione honcho Dion Giolito, “Gigantes uses Criollo 98 (Estelí) and Corojo 99 (Jalapa) binders and Aganorsa filler leaves.”

All this at a hefty 6 1/2″ x 56 size, the Gigantes are sure to be a monstrous success! We’ve got a full box on hand, so make it a point to try one soon!
their Preferidos line. These cigars have been made available to dealers in only five states and the District of Columbia. Fortunately, Pennsylvania is one of them…and the special feature is that this tray includes all six wrappers.

The choices are as follows: Brazilian Sun Grown (“Ruby”), Cameroon(“Platinum”), Connecticut (“Sapphire”), Connecticut Broadleaf (“Diamond”),Corojo (“Gold”), and Ecuadorian Sumatra (“Emerald”). All cigars are in the 5 1/2″ x 42 corona size.

With such a dazzling array of blends to choose from, take your time and try them all (‘coz we’ve got ’em all)!
