Specifications
- BrandsAging Room Quattro Original (Formerly F55)Aging Room Quattro F55 has been blended by Jochy Blanco of Tabacalera La Palma in the Dominican Republic and distributed by brand owner Rafael Nodal of Boutique Blends Cigars. The Aging Room Quattro’s most unique characteristic comes from its Sumatra seed wrapper leaf grown in Indonesia. These wrapper leaves had been aging in a tobacco warehouse for many years as no one knew what to do with them. Thankfully for us, the Aging Room visionaries knew. They have created a balanced, elegant smoke that has earned the greatest accolades of the industry in 2013, earning that coveted #2 spot in Cigar Aficionado’s Top 25 countdown of the year.
- Cigar ShapeTorpedoThe Torpedo was traditionally a fat cigar with two closed, tapered ends. Today, it is any cigar with a cut foot and straight body which tapers to a closed, pointed head.
- Cigar SectionBox-Pressed (Square)A box pressed cigar is a cigar that has a square shape. Originally, this shape came from the practice of packing round cigars tightly in cardboard boxes which are then compacted using a manual press. The cigars are thus pressed into each other and become a “squarish” or semi-square shape. Today, cigar makers use square shaped molds or a wooden trunk press for their box pressed cigars, achieving a more defined square section.
