Today, Crux Cigars began shipping it's latest release: Crux Epicure Maduro. This is an extension of 2016's Epicure which used a Connecticut shade wrapper, now replaced with a Mexican San Andres Maduro. Last year Crux announced the Epicure Galant, which on paper is the same blend as this cigar. Since then, the name and factory have been changed. The cigar is now called Epicure Maduro and is made at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez Cigars de Nicaragua S.A. This is the first Crux to be rolled outside Plasencia Cigars S.A.
Crux Cigars announces the third release of their Limitada PB5 cigar. The “PB517” begins shipping the week of 1/1/17 to retail partners across the country. As with each of the previous two releases, this is also a limited edition. However, Crux Cigars has increased the production of this release to 1000 10-count boxes.

"This is a good short smoke. Nothing too revolutionary, but definitely a good worthwhile lunch smoke. It had great promise and I would smoke it if time was in a pinch. The flavors were great to start and construction hampered it, but I don't think it's a bad cigar by any means." -Jack (Jack_H)

"Overall, a very good cigar. The first two thirds of the cigar was awesome. It really kept me on my toes of trying to figure out that "wood fire" and "hickory bbq" note. I would happily get a fiver of this cigar. A couple to smoke now and a few to smoke within the half year marks. Great way to end my BMP review year with this tastiness!" -Jiunn (jliu)
(Miami, Fl.) - Prior to the upcoming 2016 IPCPR Trade Show & Convention in Las Vegas, Crux Cigars is proud to announce two additional blends to their current lineup.
The popularity of its Ninfamaniac Dark blend has led Crux Cigars to expand both its Crux Sports and Crux Skeeterz brands with “Dark” releases featuring a Habano Sungrown Jalapa wrapper grown in Nicaragua.
Crux Cigars rebranded all of their cigar packaging a couple years ago and started with their core lines. The brands that did not get immediately refreshed were put on hold. Now, that refresh is finally coming to the Du Connoisseur line.
