Torano had a couple interesting products coming out that will be B&M only.

The Vault series which has four (4) sizes
Robusto (5x52)
Toro (6x50)
Torpedo (6 1/8 x 52)
Corona Gorda (5 5/8 x 46)
Retail before taxes for around $5.00
This blend is from the cigar blend book from the Torano family. They have been recording blends since 1982. This is stored in a safety deposit box on site. I guess recently they were perusing the book and found a Blend A-008. It consisted of heavy filler from Nicaragua, the binder from Jamastran and the wrapper is from a shade grown Nicaraguan Colorado plant. They blended this with a new blend of tobacco in a recently purchase property the Torano family now owns in Nicaragua. This Ligero binder was added to the Jamastran to create the A-008.
It is supposed to be a medium to full bodied . I wish I could tell you how it smoked, but they had none to give out.


The Loyal series is also available in four sizes.
Robusto (5x56)
BFC (6x60)
Torpedo (6x52)
Churchill (7x47)
Wrapper-Sumatra seen from Ecuador
Binder-Nicaragua
Filler-Pueblo Nuevo, Nicaragua and Dominican Piloto Cubana
This is a medium bodied smoke that starts kind of spicy or peppery and finishes strong with tastes similar to coffee and sugar. This smoke was a very good smoke and is to retail for less than $5.00 before taxes. So worth putting into your humi for future everyday smoking.

Edited to include my notes and information from the show. Hope this helps you guys out.
