This is what Gara Barreto and Javier Barreto, with the presence of the young but very true Canarian tobacco master, Rubén Arteaga, have presented at InterTabac 2022

The new line comes in a media corona, robusto and toro size with a piramide soon to be launched. The piramide will contain a leaf that has been aged in Arehucas 18 year’s rum barrels. Arehucas is a famous rum from the Canary Islands.
There is also a limited edition La Regenta Centenario Gran Reserva, a 6×52 Toro with the same aged Cuban leaf but with the addition of Brazilian tobacco.
