Nelson Cigar Line Launches with Commemorative Gift Set

Selected Tobacco, under the visionary leadership of Nelson Alfonso, proudly announces the release of its most exclusive offering to date: The Nelson. This limited-edition line pays homage to the Alfonso family legacy while continuing Selected Tobacco’s unique care during their post roll aging process.

The Nelson will be available exclusively as a 6 × 54 vitola presented in commemorative packages that include five, four year aged cigars and a custom-designed ashtray created by Alfonso himself. Each cigar comes housed in protective, cosmetic-grade aluminum tubes to preserve its unmatched quality.

“The Nelson represents both our past and our future,” said Nelson Alfonso, founder of Selected Tobacco. “This is our line that we are releasing, created and blended with my sons.”

Distinguished by its Ecuador Habano 2000 wrapper embracing Ecuadorian binder, The Nelson features a complex blend of Dominican and Peruvian fillers.

Rolled with precision in Costa Rica and aged to perfection in Spain, The Nelson embodies the cross- continental experience that has become synonymous with Selected Tobacco’s renowned offerings.

The commemorative sets, which debuted at this year’s Premium Cigar Association (PCA) show in New Orleans, are priced at $160 MSRP and are scheduled to ship immediately to authorized retailers.
