Somm Cigars is excited to announce the early launch of their new Rioja blend, in collaboration with Luxury Cigar Club, ahead of its originally scheduled release at the Tobacco Plus Expo (TPE) next year. The founder of Somm Cigars, Vlada Stojanov (former distributor for Casdagli and Lampert), shared his enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “I’ve had the pleasure and incredible fortune of working with Ben and Chris, from Luxury Cigar Club, since their first box. They have been great supporters of every project I have been involved with. Aside from that, they’ve been phenomenal friends along the way. I am incredibly grateful that they’ve chosen to launch the new Rioja blend ahead of its scheduled release next January.”
The Rioja blend is a tribute to the famed Spanish wine region of Rioja and its Gran Reserva wines, known for their exceptional combination of tradition, prowess, and skill, offering amazing quality at an attractive price. This inspiration is evident in the blend’s craftsmanship, undertaken in partnership with the esteemed Tabacelera Diaz Cabrera.
This blend features a three-year-aged Corojo wrapper from the Dominican Republic, a three-year-aged Sumatra binder, and a mix of four fillers from the Dominican Republic, each aged between three to four years. The result is a blend that perfectly balances complexity, power, and harmony, designed for daily enjoyment.
Available in two sizes, a 6×52 Toro priced at $14, and a 5×54 Robusto for $13.50, the Rioja blend is presented in sophisticated 10-count boxes. This early release gives cigar aficionados a unique opportunity to experience a new and exquisite offering from Somm Cigars.
