Ferio Tego Releases Ferio Tego Metropolitan 30 Years

Ferio Tego is proud to announce the release of the Ferio Tego Metropolitan 30 Years, a limited-production cigar marking three decades of the Metropolitan brand and its enduring commitment to consistency, a broad range of flavor and experience, and overdelivering value.

The Metropolitan brand was originally developed in the mid-1990s, debuting in 1995–1996 with Connecticut and Maduro blends produced in the Dominican Republic by the Quesada family. Over the years, the portfolio expanded thoughtfully, with the addition of Metropolitan Habano in 2016 and the incorporation of the Host blends into the Metropolitan Selection umbrella in 2018. Today, each Metropolitan blend continues to be produced at the factory where it was originally developed—an uncommon distinction in the modern cigar industry.

“The Metropolitan blends have been enjoyed for generations. For many consumers and retailers alike, it was a first cigar, a go-to cigar, and often a celebratory cigar. That kind of loyalty and affection only happens when consistency remains core to the brand,” said Michael Herklots, co-owner of Ferio Tego. “When a blend is trusted, familiar, and respected over time, it becomes part of people’s personal history. After more than 30 years—and with a bright future ahead—that is certainly cause for celebration.”

Ferio Tego Metropolitan 30 Years is a 6” x 50 toro, produced in the Dominican Republic by the Quesada family. The blend features Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers, a Dominican binder, and an Ecuador Habano wrapper.

“Some of the Metropolitan blends were developed more than 30 years ago and reflect a traditional, old-world approach to flavor. Much like the music we still enjoy from decades past, those blends have been thoughtfully remastered,” Herklots added. “While their core flavors remain consistent, the body has been deepened and enriched to meet palates where they are today. In keeping with that direction, this Ferio Tego Metropolitan 30 Years is a complex and flavorful blend with a round, rich body and balanced nuance. It honors the past 30 years while looking confidently toward the next.”

Presented in boxes of ten cigars, Ferio Tego Metropolitan 30 Years is limited to 2,500 boxes with a suggested retail price of $135 per box, excluding applicable taxes. The release is scheduled to begin shipping to retailers in late February.
