HVC Cigars has announced the return of the HVC Edition Especial 2015.

HVC Edition Especial 2015 features a new packaging design that enhances both the visual and sensory experience. The company stated in a press release they had to slightly alter the blend as it is now a soft box-press Cuban style cigar in new five vitolas. It was previously taken off shelves last year but is returning with a refreshed look.

The same existing blend uses a Mexican San Andres maduro wrapper, Nicaraguan binders and fillers tobaccos exclusively from two farms, one in Jalapa and one in Esteli, Nicaragua. HVC says the cigar will be available around the middle of June.
