Hello all, I am pleased to announce the fall pre-release of the Origen cigar. This fall we are introducing the belicoso fino size (5 1/2 x 52) in our highly acclaimed Origen blend with an MSRP of $7.50. As some of you may or may not know, this cigar is made up of 100% corojo seed tobacco with the wrapper being a rich and spicy Brazilian corojo, the binder being a sweet Costa Rican corojo, and the fillers being half Nicaraguan corojo and half Honduran corojo.

This cigar is being officially introduced at the IPCPR show in New Orleans in August of 2010 but we are pre-releasing the Origen to select accounts nationwide. We are making available 500 boxes, with our top 100 accounts each getting 5 boxes. Over the next week I will post a list of tobacconists that will be receiving this cigar, and should anybody have any questions please do not hesitate to shoot me a line.

Kindest Regards,

Ekert Cordon
National Sales Director, Tabacos, S.A.
