Don Doroteo Cigars will debut the El Alcalde cigar brand at the PCA2024 in Las Vegas March 22-25. The El Alcalde comes in a 6 ¼ x 52 Belicoso ($29.75) and features a Sumatra seed wrapper grown in Ecuador, Sumatra binder, and filler from Brazil and the Dominican Republic. It comes in five-count boxes.
Don Doroteo Cigars was founded in 2021 by Juan Lugo and serves in part as an ode to his grandfather, tobacco farmer Doroteo Fermin Delgado.
“My grandfather and his example will always be a guiding light for me. Coming from poverty and with little education, he was able to become a respected tobacco grower, and a leader within his community,” Lugo said in a press release. “This cigar is in honor of his accomplishments. El Alcalde is a blend that has gone through extensive aging (15 years), and we are confident that it will be well received.”
