In celebration of Jeremy’s 25 years in the cigar business and his 10 years of partnership with the Master Blender Hendrik Kelner Jr of the Kelner Boutique Factory, Casdagli Cigars is launching the 25 Aniversario Double Corona. The new release extends the brand’s Traditional Line cigar series. It will be a general production cigar limited to 4000 sticks per year.
“My favorite cigar made for me by the Cuban Torcedor Carlos Valdez Mosquera was a Double Corona. On leaving the Cuban production behind, I met up with Hendrik Kelner Jr to try to get close to this original Cuban blend. So the Traditional Line was born in 2013. It seemed only natural that both the vitola and the Traditional Line blend was married together for this celebration,” explains Jeremy Casdagli, the Founder of Casdagli Cigars.
Traditional Line cigars are the cornerstone of Casdagli Cigars, representing the original vitolas created in the 1990s. The Traditional Line now comprises 6 historically classic vitolas married to perfectly fitting blends, including the Casdagli Cigars’ flagship cigars, Cotton Tail and Grand Café. It was also the first KBF blended cigars for Casdagli Cigars. Alongside the launch of Traditional Line 25 Anniversario Double Corona, Casdagli will have the boxes redesigned.
The 25 Aniversario Double Corona measures 52 x 190 mm (7 1/2″) and the blend is made up of an Ecuadorian wrapper over a Dominican binder and filler tobaccos from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Peru, and the USA. 25 Aniversario Double Corona comes in 10-count natural cedar piano top boxes. The MSRP will be $36 per cigar in the USA and should be available in the USA in early August 2023 and in the rest of the world in September 2023.
