“This is our tradition, and we will fight to protect it.”
Against all odds, the MEERAPFEL family has served the tobacco and premium cigar industry since 1610. Fierce anti-tobacco movements continue to infringe on fundamental rights and the liberties of responsible adult citizens. Now more than ever, the global fight for cigar rights has become vital for the survival of a multi-century-old cigar heritage, our culture and traditional craftsmanship.
The livelihood of millions of hard-working families and the continued enjoyment of one of life’s most magical hand-crafted products is in jeopardy. The international cigar community must stand united and fight to protect the fundamental right to enjoy a premium cigar. The Cigar Rights movements and advocacy groups across all continents form the spearhead of this challenge.
MEERAPFEL Cigar has created a unique master blend, “Création Liberté”, to honor the invaluable contribution of those who have and will join the efforts of protecting our industry and our rights. The company has selected the MEERAPFEL family’s signature “sacred leaf”, a vintage Cameroon wrapper to dress the Création Liberté.
Presented exclusively in a 6 x 50 Toro vitola, the MEERAPFEL “Création Liberté” is offered in graceful Paulownia-wood chests, each holding two cigars (MSRP: 240,00 EUR / $240.00 USD per chest). 613 of these highly collectible sets have been crafted and assembled, each including a numbered lithographic artwork.
MEERAPFEL will donate proceeds from the sales of its “Création Liberté” to Cigar Rights movements and advocacy groups.
Reinhard Pohorec, Vice-President MEERAPFEL Cigar confirmed:
“As one global cigar family, we can make a difference. Création Liberté shall contribute to its prophecy: preserving our liberty.”
The MEERAPFEL “Création Liberté” will be premiered at the InterTabac Trade Show in Dortmund, Germany, this September, and start shipping this fall
