Miami, FL – C.L.E. Cigar Company is launching a new TAA exclusive cigar this year at the TAA convention in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico; the C.L.E. Azabache. Azabache, which translates intojet black, is a glistening coal that is often used in jewelry in the Cuban culture. This medium to full body Maduro cigar is delightfully creamy and will be available only to TAA members.
The Eiroa CBT 51 made its debut at Christian Eiroa's birthday event which took place during the 2023 PCA trade show. Now that cigar will be released to the public in limited form.
The Insidious by Asylum is a cigar that was released during the IPCPR 2014 trade show. The wrapper is Ecuadorian Connecticut and the binder and filler are Honduran. The cigar features a sweetened cap.
Christian Eiroa announced today that his father, Julio and brother, Justo, have entered the cigar business under the company name, JRE Tobacco Co. Their brands are Aladino, Rancho Luna and Tatascan. Eiroa says father is truly a pioneer in the tobacco and cigar business, and his mentor. His older brother and personal hero, is an agricultural engineer (graduated from the Agriculture School El Zamorano University in Honduras). He spent over 22 years building a bottled water company in Honduras and the last 4 years with Campbell Soup Company. He is extremely knowledgeable in leaf tobacco and an expert in consumer products and distribution chain management.

·“Wonderful and enjoyable. I want to smoke this one again. The flavors were awesome and close to perfect. The cinnamon was very enjoyable, almost reminding me of a Tabasco flavor. The undertones of chocolate added to the uniqueness and provided a wonderful smoking experience. I would very much like to have a box of these in my humidor. I could enjoy this with a latte or espresso. Maybe even a stout ale. The one thing that I could think of that would make this better was if it were a churchill.” –Eric (smalls29)
"This was a very good cigar. The first third is the star giving me complex flavors of coffee and cream, oily chili, black pepper, sweet bread, hay, cedar and at times perhaps a black licorice. I kept wanting to take draws just so I can confirm what I'm tasting. The cigar does still have a little bit of edge to it in which I think age may help with. Easy fiver for me. Smoking one every 6 months or so to see how it is progressing." -Jiunn (jliu)

·"A solid cigar full of richer flavors with just enough sweetness to keep it balanced. I feared the profile might become harsh after the leather faded and was pleasantly surprised at how smooth it remained. While just shy of what I would consider a powerhouse, there was enough strength in the first and final third to caution a newer cigar smoker." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

·"Overall this cigar was a great smoke with easy to discern flavors and pleasant the entire way with no issues. Will definitely get a fiver or so to age in my humi." -Sandeep (Djangos)
