On September 28, 2024, the New England Cigar Expo will witness the exclusive launch of the World’s Strongest cigar. This limited-edition masterpiece promises to redefine the boundaries of cigar strength and craftsmanship, available first to the attendees of the Expo.
Cigar enthusiasts typically choose between mild, medium, or full-bodied cigars. However, the World’s Strongest cigar breaks this mold with a single, powerful blend that challenges even the most seasoned aficionados. This unique release is perfectly paired with the day’s excitement, featuring a strongman competition narrated by none other than Mark Henry, the World Wrestling Entertainment Hall of Famer and “World’s Strongest Man”.
The World’s Strongest cigar is a creation of Reinier Lorenzo, President and Founder of HVC Cigars, crafted meticulously at the Fabrica de Tabacos HVC S.A. factory in Estelí, Nicaragua. Reinier shared his enthusiasm, “When I heard about this project, I felt that I must try to put my hat in the ring to create a blend that would live up to its name in all aspects.”
“For the World’s Strongest cigar,” explained Reinier, “we used the top leaves from the best regions in Nicaragua – Estelí and Jalapa. We included a double binder from Jalapa’s Corojo 99, two ligero leaves from Jalapa, and visos and secos from Estelí’s Criollo 98, known for its strength.”
David Garofalo, founder of the New England Cigar Expo, emphasized the cigar’s unparalleled quality, “This cigar is strong but balanced, believe it or not. It is not under fermented or raw, or any tricks to fool the smoker. This is the real deal, a full-flavored, full- bodied cigar, certainly the strongest I have ever smoked.”
The World’s Strongest cigar measures 6” long with a ring gauge of 56, available in boxes of 10. Only 500 boxes have been produced, initially available exclusively to Expo attendees on Saturday September 28th. Starting Monday morning, September 30th, remaining boxes will be sold at 2GuysCigars.com. The retail price is set at $12 per single and $99.99 for a box of 10.
