DURAN CIGARS TO INTRODUCE THE “BIG JACK” 7×70 NEYA F8 AT 2015 IPCPR
(Miami, Florida) June 25, 2015—Roberto Duran Premium Cigars, doing business as Duran Cigars, one of the fastest growing boutique cigar companies, will unveil a line extension for the Neya F-8 Ligero Typhoon during this year’s IPCPR in July. The new size will be 7 x 70 and aptly named “Big Jack” after Jack Torano, the company’s representative.
Robert Pelayo Duran, owner of Duran Cigars, said this of the decision, “As we all know, Jack Torano has a larger than life personality, so I figured that it was a natural fit to name the Neya F8 7 x 70 after him. He (Jack) had been pushing for the bigger size because there is a growing segment of cigar consumers that enjoy not only a full-flavored cigar, but a larger sized cigar as well. We look forward to presenting the “Big Jack” and feel that this new vitola will really impress those looking for the ultimate in size and strength.”
“Never in my wildest dreams did I think that I would have a cigar name inspired by me, but what better cigar than the Neya F8 7 x 70. The Neya F8 has been a smash hit for us. There are many consumers that are looking for a full size-strength cigar and this one delivers. It’s well balanced with complex flavors and it packs a punch! I’m very excited about it and I really look forward to introducing the “Big Jack” at the IPCPR.” said Jack Torano.
The Neya Premium Cigar Brand was introduced during the 2014 IPCPR and it comes in a cedar 20 count cabinet. Both the filler and binder is Nicaraguan, while the wrapper is a Habana Ecuador. The Neya F-8 Ligero Typhoon, which is a full bodied version of the Neya Classic, is currently available in six sizes. The “Big Jack” will carry the same blend as the Typhoon but will pack an extra punch for those looking for that bigger size and strength.
