Vicente Blends announced the worldwide release of The Collection: 4 Ring Sampler. This will be the first time the company has exhibited at the show.
Samplers will include one of each blend from The Collection including:
- The Gold Standard V – Dominican puro with Dominican Yamasá wrapper
- The Palladium V – Dominican puro with Dominican habano wrapper
- Honour – US Connecticut wrapper
- War – Cameroon
The sampler will come packaged in its own magnetic flip-box, with a custom molded tray to cradle and display each cigar. The company says they expect to ship these to retailers in May. These will have an MSRP of $168.
In addition, the company announced it will be releasing a new line called the Sleeks. The Sleeks will debut in three distinct blends:
- Sleek White featuring a US Connecticut wrapper;
- Sleek Gold featuring a Dominican Criollo wrapper
- Sleek Black featuring a double wrapped San Andrés
Each of the Sleeks will also use a Mexican San Andrés binder over Dominican fillers. They will be available in a 6 x 48 format. Consistent with Vicente Blends’ reputation for original, innovative design and packaging, The Sleeks will each be draped in unique single-color “ghost shadow” rings and foot bands. The ten-counts will come in matching “ghost shadow” magnetic boxes.
Vicente Blends says these will ship in late April with an MSRP of $28 per cigar and $280 for the box.
