Latitude Zero, a blend named to honor Ecuador’s tobacco growing regions, is expanding its lineup with a new expression called Latitude Zero Signature.
Featuring premium, hand-selected tobaccos grown by Oliva Tobacco Company, Latitude Zero Signature is blended by Raul Disla and was created to extend the popular Latitude Zero line.
Kevin Irvine, product coordinator of Scandinavian Tobacco Group’s (STG) Online and Retail division said:
“Latitude Zero Signature is rich and refined with an intriguing spice. It complements the original Latitude Zero blend, offering a completely unique smoking experience. This cigar smokes like an ultra-premium, so it’s a great choice for someone who wants the utmost in tobacco quality and complexity at a great price point.”
For the blend, Raul Disla selected a robust assortment of Nicaraguan Habano, Dominican Habano and Connecticut Broadleaf fillers, and a Nicaraguan Habano binder. He crowned Latitude Zero Signature with Ecuadoran Sumatra leaf from the lush, cloud-covered equatorial growing region from which the Latitude Zero brand takes its name. The result is a full-bodied smoke, brimming with notes of pepper, leather and cream and an alluring spice.
Latitude Zero Signature will be available starting on June 24, 2022. National distribution will be handled by Meier & Dutch Wholesale Cigar Distributors.
Latitude Zero Signature will be expressed in 3 different vitolas:
- Robusto (5” x 54); MSRP per cigar $8.00
- Toro (6” x 52); MSRP per cigar $8.25
- Gordo (6” x 60); MSRP per cigar $8.75
Latitude Zero Signature is handcrafted in Nicaragua at the NACSA factory. The cigars are box-pressed, and ship in 20-count boxes.
