A Brand New Fish in the Pond

Billy and Gus from Artesano del Tobacco present their newest edition of the El Pulpo line – The SQUID. This beautiful Perfecto Grande 6.5 x 60 is based on the same blend as all the El Pulpo cigars and was inspired by the consumers of the Cigar Brothers from New York. The exact vitola, however, was suggested by AJ Fernandez himself, and the particular name originates from the General Manager of Matador Cigar shops in New York City. Billy points out that it took a year to finalize the blend and vitola. It is kind of the missing link in the El Pulpo family, which now consists of five vitolas.

Peter’s love of cigars began in 2001, and since then his interest has continued to grow. Multiple trips to Nicaragua, Cuba and the Dominican Republic as well as attending numerous cigar festivals have increasingly fueled this passion. He finds being a member of the Cigar Journal blind tasting panel a great honor and pleasure. This all led to the opportunity to become an author on the Cigar Journal team.
