The base line Casa Turrent will be renamed Serie 1901 (a referral to the birth year of the grandfather of company leader Alejandro Turrent) and feature a second cigar band with “Serie 1901” written on it. The line also receives a new vitola: a Torpedo measuring 5 1/2 x 50 (140 x 19,8 mm).

The new Serie 1942 is a hommage to Alejandro’s father Alberto Turrent and features two cigar bands in the colors white and gold. The new blend has a Negro San Andrés Colorado wrapper, a Mexican Criollo binder and Negro San Andrés and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos.
