Selected Tobacco - Byron - 21st Century Honorables 7x60 (Each)

DESCRIPTION

in 1848 Jose and Eusebio Alfonso, cousins,  opened a small cigar factory in Santiago de Las Vegas, a province of Havana, Cuba and created a cigar brand named Lord Byron in honor of this world renowned English poet. He was arguably the greatest author of romantic poetries of the day and more importantly pertaining to the brand, an avid cigar smoker and enthusiast. Some researchers say "Lord Byron became the first cigar brand to adorn a lithographed cigar brand and label with a name on it". More than eighty ears later, in the 1930's The Great Depression hits and Lord Byron Cigars were gone, but not forever. Now... 150 years later and the original owners' great-great-great grandson Nelson Alfonso recovered again the Byron Brand name in 1998.

The 21st Century displays layers of nougat and fruit sweetness, bread and cedar notes in the background and some black pepper on the retro hale. Smooth and delicate.
