Broncano Cigar Co. announces the Classic Rubí Corona, a 5 × 46 pigtail Corona produced at Kelner Boutique Factory in the Dominican Republic. The new Corona brings the Classic Rubí blend into a smaller format, increasing the wrapper-to-filler ratio and offering a different expression of Rubí while maintaining the blend’s established character.
The Classic Rubí Corona features an HVA Ecuador wrapper, Dominican San Vicente Seco binder, and fillers of Dominican Criollo 98, Dominican Piloto Cubano, Mexican San Andrés Morron and U.S. Broadleaf. The cigar is medium-plus in strength and finished with a traditional pigtail cap.
“Rubí has developed a strong identity for us, and I didn’t want the Corona to simply be another size,” said Martin Smith, Founder and President of Broncano Cigar Co. “The 5 × 46 format gives the blend a different balance and smoking experience while still being unmistakably Rubí.”
The initial release will recognize select retail partners who supported Broncano during the company’s earliest stages. Rather than beginning with a broad release, the first shipments are being directed to retailers that helped establish the brand and supported its growth.
The Classic Rubí Corona is presented in a four-count sleeve-and-tray box and is shipping now, with cigars expected to begin arriving at select retailers in mid-to-late November.
