ROMEO Y JULIETA LINEA ORO - Habanos is releasing an exclusive new line for the Romeo y Julieta Cigars brand – the Romeo y Julieta Linea Oro. The line presents THREE fantastic new sizes, all encased in opulent varnished, red boxes. Without a doubt, these new cigars will excite many cigar-lovers, as they are not only stunningly beautiful, but these new sizes will allow aficionados to smoke exciting new blends and formats. The line will be formally presented during the Gala Night event on the 28th of February, paying tribute to 145 years of the Romeo y Julieta brand.

BOLIVAR BELICOSOS FINOS RESERVA COSECHA 2016 - Next, we have the latest ‘Reserva’ cigar – the Bolivar Belicosos Finos Reserva Cosecha 2016. This new cigar pays tribute to the brand's most emblematic smokes, the Bolivar Belicosos Finos Cigar, measuring at 140 mm by 52 ring gauge.  For fans of the Bolivar Cigars brand, this is definitely something to be excited about. Bolivar is known in the industry for releasing some of the most stogies. So, we would only expect some phenomenal tasting notes from this new release. As you know, the creation of Habanos Reserva cigars involves the selection of the best tobacco leaves from the Vuelta Abajo area (DOP).  Every single leaf used for the filler, wrapper, and cap, were aged in a long and careful process for a minimum of 3 years. So, undoubtedly, this new cigar is going to be in the wish lists of many eager collectors this year.
