Villiger cigars announced today shipping of two new line extensions of their highly acclaimed winning La Flor De Ynclan and La Vencedora will start this week.
At the 2018 IPCPR, Villiger Cigars showcased the La Flor De Ynclan Lancero Especial and the La Vencedora Gordo as line extensions to their portfolio.
La Flor De Ynclan Lancero Especial
The La Flor De Ynclan Lancero Especial extends the La Flor De Ynclan which was a smashing success, receiving numerous accolades after its re-launch in 2017. The highlight being a 93 rating and being named the 2017 number 10 cigar in world by Cigar Aficionado Magazine. It was also named the number 12 cigar of 2017 on Stogie Press. According to the press release:
“Diligently crafted by Heinrich Villiger and master blender Jose Matias Maragoto of ABAM Cigar Factory in the Dominican Republic, the Villiger La Flor De Ynlcan was a cigar 10 years in the making. Villiger Cigars produced a small batch of La Flor De Ynclan over a decade ago. Unsatisfied with the final result; the decision was made to cease production. The tobacco was set aside and aged, while Matias meticulously tweaked the amount of the Indonesian, Dominican, and Nicaraguan tobacco within its Ecuadorian wrapper. Present day, the La Flor De Ynclan is what both imagined it could be.”
We have sampled the La Flor De Ynclan Lancero Especial here on Stogie Press and rated it a solid:
The limited production Villiger La Flor De Ynclan Lancero Especial comes in 25 count boxes with an MSRP of $11.00. Production is limited to just 500 boxes.
La Vencedora Gordo
The La Vencedora Gordo is a 6 x 60 vitola that is the first ever full-bodied Villiger cigar, and carries a special meaning to Villiger Cigars chairman of the board, Heinrich Villiger. The press company press release notes:
“The Villiger La Vencedora or “The Victor” represents to Heinrich Villiger the arrival of Villiger Cigars to the premium handmade cigar segment. It was time, in his opinion, to push to the envelope and create a legacy cigar that will serve as a proper follow-up to the acclaimed Villiger La Flor De Ynclan brand. This Nicaraguan puro wrapped in a beautiful Nicaraguan Habano Oscuro, boasts a potent full-bodied smoking experience, featuring highly seasoned, hearty flavors.”
