A Century and Three-Quarters of Excellence: Byron Celebrates 175 Years in Style
At PCA 2025, Selected Tobacco will unveil a tribute unlike any other: the Byron 175th Anniversary Humidor. Limited to just 175 units, this commemorative release is not merely a product—it’s a reverent nod to tradition, craftsmanship, and the story behind one of the most refined cigar brands in the world.
Housed within each meticulously crafted humidor are 60 cigars, pulled from various chapters of the Byron portfolio. Each cigar reflects a distinct era in cigar-making history, offering an evolving and layered tasting experience. The selection includes:
• Byron 1850 No. 3 (6 x 52)
• Byron 19th Century Grand Poemas (6 x 56)
• Byron 20th Century Habaneros (6 x 54)
• Byron 21st Century Elegantes (6 1/8 x 55)
Each cigar has undergone a minimum five-year aging process in Selected Tobacco’s specialised facilities, ensuring complexity, smoothness, and depth that aficionados have come to expect from Byron.
But the experience doesn’t stop at the cigars. The humidor includes a suite of premium accessories, discreetly stored in side drawers: a three-finger cigar case and a coordinated ultramarine ashtray, both designed to echo the humidor’s elegant aesthetic.
The humidor itself is a masterpiece of design. Twin Byron knobs open to reveal a top shelf capable of holding 20 cigars, with hidden humidification chambers beneath. A secret lower compartment houses the remaining cigars. The gold-accented front panel discreetly incorporates a hygrometer, temperature gauge, and secure locking mechanism.
“This is not only to smoke, it is to feel,” said Nelson Alfonso, the visionary behind Selected Tobacco. “Byron is more than a cigar—it’s the story of my family, of my country, of the time. This humidor is one piece of my soul in each box.”
The Byron 175th Anniversary Humidor is expected to ship in early autumn 2025. While pricing is still to be finalised, anticipation is already high for what promises to be one of the most prestigious releases of the year.
For those who see cigars not just as indulgence but as heritage, this is a once-in-a-generation offering that blends history, artistry, and passion into a single, breath-taking release.
