July 20, 2022 Inspector Z 2 min read

VegaFina releases 1998 Vintage 1 Limited Edition. It is the first limited edition in the VegaFina 1998 line. The VegaFina 1998 line is the brand’s most premium line and saw the light in 2019. The cigar commemorates the year in which it became available for the first time. The VegaFina 1998 comes in three sizes. You can read our review of the VegaFina 1998 VF52 here.

Vintage 1

Now VegaFina presents VINTAGE 1. Under this concept, VegaFina 1998 proposes a unique smoking experience by offering the aficionado two elegant and exclusive vitolas. Both are of a medium ring gauge that rediscover the magic of the cigars of past times, increasingly in vogue. The 40 and 42 ring sizes are classic and elegant. Rare in an era where the bigger ring gauges are dominating the market.

Two very special formats, VF40 which measures 6⅛x40, and a 7⅓x42 VF42L. The L stands for Lancero, even though it is a little thicker than a classic Cuban Lancero. The cigars have been hand-crafted by the hands of the most expert cigar-rollers of Tabacalera de García. The blend is identical to the VegaFina 1998 blend. The filler tobaccos are from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and Colombia. The binder comes from Java, Indonesia. The wrapper is Ecuadorian Shade Grown. All the tobacco is a minimum of three years old.

The packaging

VegaFina 1998 Vintage 1 is presented in an attractive high-gloss lacquered wooden box. Each box contains 16 cigars, 8 of each size. The cigars are dressed with the line’s cigar rings and with an additional one created for the occasion. Each box is protected with a velvet case personalized with the limited edition design.
