Nelson Alfonso of Selected Tobacco is introducing the Atabey Limited Edition Humidor for PCA 2023. Each luxury humidor with gold trim and black gloss finish contains sixty Atabey cigars, five of each size in the portfolio.
Atabey is produced every year in limited quantities and laid to rest for at least five years post-roll. The Limited Edition Atabey Humidor features four compartments; two side drawers, a front drawer, and a traditional humidor lid to accommodate the 60 Atabey’s inside from the 2017 vintage. The sizes included are Hechizos, Divinos, Idolos, Brujos, Sabios, Delirios, Duendes (Torpedo), Spiritus, Ritos, Misticos, Dioses, and Benditos.
“I have worked on many international projects throughout my career,” said Nelson Alfonso, Principal of Selected Tobacco. “This Atabey Humidor is the most special to my family as it celebrates the entire line of Atabey.”
The blend consists of an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, over undisclosed binder, and filler tobacco, except for the Peruvian Ligero. They are produced at the Tabacos de Costa Rica factory in Costa Rica. 250 Atabey Humidors have been created, and the first humidor will be displayed at the Atabey Lounge in Frisco, Texas, at Industrial Cigar in May. The Atabey Humidor MSRP is $3,999, which includes the price of the 60 Atabey cigars and the luxury humidor.
Sixty humidors will be released this year at PCA 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
