JRE Tobacco Co. Releases Limited Toro Box-Pressed Sampler

December 5, 2024 Inspector X 2 min read

This holiday season, JRE Tobacco Co. is offering a special treat for cigar enthusiasts: the JRE Toro Box-Pressed Collection. This limited-edition sampler features box-pressed versions of five popular Aladino blends, typically only available in traditional round vitolas.

What’s Inside the Sampler?

Each sampler contains two cigars from the following blends, all presented in a 6 x 52 box-pressed Toro size:
• Aladino Corojo
• Aladino Classic
• Aladino Cameroon
• Aladino Vintage Selection
• Aladino Connecticut
Priced at an MSRP of $100, this 10-count sampler is designed to showcase the complexity and craftsmanship of JRE’s renowned Aladino lines. While exact production numbers haven’t been disclosed, the sampler is already shipping to retailers, making it an ideal gift—or indulgence—for the holiday season.

The Aladino Legacy in Box-Pressed Form

With the exception of the Aladino Connecticut, which features an Ecuadorian Connecticut-seed wrapper, all blends in this collection are crafted entirely from Honduran tobaccos. JRE’s signature emphasis on corojo-seed tobaccos—a hallmark of the Eiroa family tradition—remains evident across the board.

• Aladino Corojo: 100% Honduran Corojo for a rich and balanced flavour.
• Aladino Classic: A Honduran Habano wrapper complements Corojo and Habano fillers.
• Aladino Cameroon: Honduran Cameroon-seed wrapper adds spice to a Corojo core.
• Aladino Vintage Selection: A Honduran Habano wrapper rounds out this aged blend.
• Aladino Connecticut: An Ecuadorian Connecticut-seed wrapper offers a milder, creamy profile.

Made in Honduras

Each cigar is meticulously crafted at the Fábrica de Puros Aladino at Las Lomas Jamastran in Danlí, Honduras. This is the second consecutive year JRE has launched a holiday sampler, reflecting their commitment to innovation and customer appreciation.
Whether you’re a fan of Aladino’s traditional blends or seeking something new, this box-pressed sampler offers a unique opportunity to explore their expertise in cigar craftsmanship. Be sure to pick one up before they’re gone!
