Originally inspired by Julio R. Eiroa’s enchantment with Cameroon tobacco, 600 boxes of a Limited Edition Aladino blend was released in 2023 in the United States market. This was planned to be a one-time limited release from the family’s archives but will return for November 2024 due to popular demand and available for all markets.
Julio and Justo’s journey growing Cameroon dates back to 2016 and their first Cameroon blend was released in 2020. This Limited Edition cigar has tobacco varieties grown at the JRE Tobacco Farm that have been aged for five to six years and have been personally selected by father and son.
The company says they were looking to have a cigar that has high complexity in flavor but at the same time is contemporary for their smokers. The cigar is made at the company’s Fabrica de Puros Aladino factory in Honduras. It is a 6 x 50 toro and has an MSRP of $16 per cigar.
