Unveiling new insights in the Archetype story, Ventura Cigar Company has announced it will be expanded their successful Archetype Cigar brand portfolio with the introduction of the Master and Pupil.
These two new cigars examine strength and transitions through rich tobacco blends crafted by Juan Martinez and Doctor Cuenca from Joya de Nicaragua. Ventura Cigar Company invites the industry to get a first look at Master and Pupil at the Tobacco Plus Expo 2020, held in Las Vegas, Nevada, 1/29/20 – 1/31/20. Customers can expect to see the cigars at fine tobacconists online and across the country soon after.
Inspired by the studies of both Sigmund Freud and Karl Jung, who identified common threads and themes of storytelling that transcend both time and culture, Archetype cigars outline the familiar tale of a hero’s journey, with cigars punctuating each crucial stage. Master and Pupil incorporates the essence of Freud and Jung, teacher and student, and tensions uncovered with the reversal of roles and transition of student to teacher.
The Pupil
The Pupil is mild and relaxed in nature with a blend described as:
- Wrapper – Ecuadoran Connecticut
- Binder – Nicaraguan
- Filler – Nicaraguan
The Master
The Master is a bold, confident Nicaraguan puro that has blend described as:
- Wrapper – Nicaraguan
- Binder – Nicaraguan
- Filler – Nicaraguan
Both blends are expressed in a (6 x 52) Toro and come packaged in 20-count boxes.
Michael Giannini, General Manager of Ventura Cigar Company noted:
“No matter where you are in life, you are a master or a pupil. And then, one day, you are both. We are students first, learning from those who came before. And then we find ourselves as the teachers, imparting our knowledge on others just starting their quest.
We are never fully done learning, either, so the roles of teacher and student are fluid, always changing. The Archetype Master and Pupil cigars explore these transitions and tensions through blends that offer strength and nuance throughout the smoke.
We’ve worked on these for over a year with the masters at Joya de Nicaragua, of whom we are all students. These cigars are solid. If you’re coming to TPE 2020, come by the Ventura Cigar booth to say hi and check them out. And if you’re not at the show, well, keep an eye out.”
Master and Pupil are the latest releases to Archetype, a line marked by highly rated cigars that include Dreamstate, Sage Advice, Strange Passage, Initiation, and Axis Mundi, in addition to the 2018 3-cigar mini-series Crystals, Curses, and Cloaks. Master and Pupil are scheduled to ship immediately after TPE 2020.
