VILLIGER DO BRASIL SUMMER EDITIONS 2021
VILLIGER is uniquely celebrating the summer of 2021 for twice the amount of fun. One country, two varieties, each with 3 Robustos, available in limited quantities.
VILLIGER is launching its second Summer Edition entirely dedicated to summer and sun. The editions are dedicated to the country that is particularly close to Heinrich Villiger’s heart: Brazil. Brazilian tobacco has been generating a great deal of attention for quite some time. For reasons well known to every aficionado: This pure Puro brings together many different flavors, which rekindle the sensations of summer. Both varieties are grown in the in-house factory located in the Bahia state, one of the most fertile areas of Brazil. A premium quality cigar is produced right here, where they also grow oranges, sugar cane, and coffee: The high-quality tobacco is harvested in the company’s own fields, and carefully selected torcedors painstakingly roll the Puros by hand.
One country, two Puros
VILLIGER DO BRASIL Claro Summer Edition
The filler of the milder Claro Edition consists of Mata Fina and Mata Norte tobacco, giving the cigar its extraordinary flavor. The cigar is covered with a velvety light brown Brazilian Connecticut shade wrapper, which enhances the subtle aromas of coffee and wood, as well as the nuances of cedar and pepper. The edition is limited to only 730 boxes of 3 cigars each.
VILLIGER DO BRASIL Maduro Summer Edition
Like the Claro, the filler of the stronger Maduro Edition consists of Mata Fina and Mata Norte tobacco, giving the cigar its full-bodied flavor. The cigar is covered with a dark Arapiraca wrapper, which is renowned for its fruity notes. As a result, the VILLIGER DO BRASIL MADURO Summer Edition is a notch stronger than its sister Claro. The edition is limited to only 670 boxes of 3 cigars each.
Two excellent Puros with identical qualities
Both Summer Editions are available in the Robusto format, measuring 127 mm in length and 19.8 mm in diameter. Each cigar provides a smoking time of about 45 minutes. The Summer Edition gives every connoisseur a taste of Brazil.
“A luxury product for discerning aficionados,” notes CEO Heinrich Villiger: “We control the entire production chain. Doing so enables us to maintain consistently high quality – from the tobacco seed to the perfect cigar.”
Available from June 2021
