Cigar News: Los Statos Deluxe Expands Profile with Impressive Connecticut Shade Cigar

Los Statos Deluxe is expanding its profile with an impressive new Connecticut Shade cigar. Los Statos Deluxe Connecticut, the third entry in the Los Statos Deluxe portfolio, builds upon the resounding success of the brand and continues the collaboration between Matt Booth and Justin Andrews with their lightest profile yet.

Matt Wilson, Los Statos Deluxe Senior Brand Manager stated:

“When we started developing Los Statos Deluxe Connecticut, we wanted it to be a ‘smoker’s Connecticut’ in that it is a milder cigar compared to the rest of the Los Statos Deluxe portfolio, yet it has plenty of dimension, depth and nuance. This is why we wanted to work with our friends at Joya de Nicaragua to deliver on this smoking experience that cigar smokers, newer and experienced alike, can truly enjoy.”

Los Statos Deluxe Connecticut features a blend of mellow to medium-bodied Estelí, Jalapa, and Pennsylvania Broadleaf tobacco with Nicaraguan Habano filler, all wrapped with Ecuadorian Connecticut. The result? A smooth, creamy, nuanced smoking experience.

Booth, Founder and Creative Director of Room101 designed eye-catching packaging for Los Statos Deluxe Connecticut to ensure that it stands out at retail and in smokers’ humidors.

Booth noted:

“Smoking Los Statos Deluxe Connecticut will set your soul ablaze. It will be as if your very spirit has touched the sun.”
