Artesano Del Tobacco announces The Squid, the latest addition to the EL Pulpo cigar line.
The 6 ½ x 50 box-pressed Perfecto ($20) features a Mexican San Andreas Maduro wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and filler.
“Based on suggestions from our loyal consumers who desired a unique shape that embodies strength and balance of the EL Pulpo blend, we opted for a perfecto shape,” a press release from the company says. “After enjoying a pre-release with friends at Matador Cigar Lounge in NYC, Willy—the GM—suggested naming it ‘The Squid’ due to its resemblance to this fascinating creature. We believe these perfectos represent a harmony between strength and flavor derived from our well-aged San Andreas wrapper.”
