July 13, 2015

Raleigh, N.C. – A new and exciting lifestyle magazine will be launching at the 83rd Annual IPCPR Convention and International Trade Show in New Orleans on July 17, 2015. Cigars & Leisure is a consumer magazine that appeals not only to cigar enthusiasts but to those interested in travel, nightlife, music, art, and mixology. While there are plenty of magazines on the market today that cover every topic possibly imagined, including cigars and travel, there’s not one that seamlessly brings these two worlds together into one satisfying package.

“Ben Stimpson and I set out to create a magazine for everyone rather than a segment of the market. This is a magazine that has something for men and women, young and old, cigar smokers and those curious about it. There’s something within the pages of our magazine for you—whether it’s in one of our travel stories or with a fun new drink in our mixology section,” said co-founder Antoine Reid.

Cigars & Leisure magazine’s mission is to be the personal concierge of the cigar industry. Each page in each issue will be another adventure. The magazine will take readers into both big and small cigar lounges in their neighborhoods. It will introduce readers to the artists, musicians, and creative people that breathe life and personality into communities across the nation. Each issue will take readers on a trip to locations around the world that they may have wanted to visit but haven’t yet found the time.

The premiere issue of Cigars & Leisure focuses on the heart of the cigar industry, Miami and the popular South Beach area. The cover features E.P. Carrillo co-founder Lissette Perez-Carrillo, who also is featured in an exclusive interview. All are invited to view the digital edition of the premiere issue for free at cigarsandleisure.com/digital/premiere15. Each issue retails for $6.95, while a one-year print subscription, which includes digital access, is available for $14.99. A digital-only subscription is available for $9.99.

Cigars & Leisure magazine will be at this year’s IPCPR Trade Show in New Orleans at booth 19215. Cigars & Leisure is published by SpecComm International Inc.

CORRETTO

Blended to perfection, with notes of espresso and nuances of grappa, Sambuca and brandy, this cigar is the ultimate indulgence for the worldly ones.

CORTADO

Blended to bring out the velvety rich flavors of a smooth latte, with a delectable hit of espresso, this cigar has an intense buttery caramel finish.

CAFÉ CON LECHE

This flavor is just like your morning cup of Joe. A bold roast perfectly blended, with equal parts of Cuban espresso and milk. It has an enticing coffee aroma, with nuances of robust warm milk and light vanilla notes.

The three different offerings of Coffee Break by Tatiana will be expressed in three vitolas housed in 25count boxes: 4x40 (Cuarenta) 4.5x50 (Cincuenta) 4x60 (Sesenta)

Jason Wood, Vice President of Miami Cigar & Co. stated: "This is always a very exciting time of year for us.  There is nothing like the IPCPR, the Super Bowl of the cigar industry. We are all very eager to introduce Coffee Break by Tatiana to all of our loyal customers. Without them there wouldn't be us and I appreciate them all for that and can't wait to see them all in New Orleans!"

GEORGE RICO
PRIVATE HUMIDOR SELECTION 2007-2008
MLG 7.5 X 38 (LANCERO)

(Miami, Florida, May 21, 2015) – Gran Habano announces the first official release from the Private Humidor Selection by George Rico, a series of heavenly-aged cigars straight out of George's private reserve. The Private Humidor Selection will come from the 30,000 cigars produced and personally designated for George's personal use since 2003, and will be eventually released in different blends and sizes.

(Miami, Fl.) - After announcing both the new Crux Guild and Crux du Connoisseur last week, Crux Cigars is proud to provide details on the final of three brand new lines that will be available in the second half of this year.

The third brand for Crux Cigars will be the Crux Limitada PB5, the inaugural release in a new series that is based on our love of exceptional tobacco, each with a different blend composed of tobacco that we could only find and purchase in limited quantities.

The Crux Limitada PB5 features a Engañoso wrapper from Esteli, Nicaragua that was secured over three years ago and has been waiting to be blended into a superior cigar. Internally,  the filler is made up of a combination of five different filler tobaccos while the binder is Connecticut Broadleaf.The final blend was a result of hard work, hours of development, and a suggestion from a friend and fellow cigar manufacturer. Distinctively superior, the maturity of flavor makes this cigar a truly special release.

The 2015 release of the Crux Limitada PB5 will come in only one vitola, a 5.75 x 54 Cuban box-pressed Toro Extra that will retail for $11.99. The cigar will be packaged in boxes of 10 that will sell for $119.90, and there will only be 5,000 total cigars produced. As with all Crux cigars so far, the Crux Limitada PB5 will be rolled at Plasencia Cigars S.A. in Esteli, Nicaragua.

The Crux Limitada PB5 will be officially launched  at the upcoming IPCPR Show in New Orleans, La., and is scheduled to begin shipping to retailers in November of 2015.
