Ferio Tego Adding Toros To Timeless Collection
Ferio Tego is adding a toro size to each of its four Timeless lines, expanding the series. The Ferio Tego Timeless Collection, which is made up of four unique blends, will now include a toro measuring 6 inches long by 50 ring gauge.
The toro size has emerged as the most popular cigar shape in America, one in extremely high demand with consumers, but somehow Ferio Tego has gone three years without having one in any of its Timeless Collection brands. (Still, this is not the first toro for Ferio Tego: the company released a toro in its Ferio Tego Summa blend earlier this year, and its annual limited-edition releases, Ferio Tego Elegancia and Generoso, are offered exclusively in a toro size.)
Timeless is made in two different countries. Panamericana and Supreme are rolled in Estelí, Nicaragua, by the Plasencia family while Sterling and Prestige are made in Licey, Dominican Republic, by Quesada Cigars. Each toro has a different name and blend.
From Nicaragua, the new Ferio Tego Timeless Panamericana Magnum, which the company says is full in body, is made from Nicaraguan, Costa Rican and Ecuadorian tobaccos, retailing for $15.25 per cigar. They are packed 10 to the box. Ferio Tego Timeless Supreme 650 is a box-pressed Nicaraguan puro made with tobaccos from Nicaragua's four major growing regions—Jalapa, Estelí, Condega and Ometepe. The $12.25 cigar comes in boxes of 21.
From the Dominican Republic, the Ferio Tego Timeless Sterling Toro is made using Dominican fillers and binder with an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper. It comes 10 to the box, and is priced at $15.25 each. The Ferio Tego Timeless Prestige Toro is made from a blend of Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers with a Dominican binder and a wrapper grown in Honduras. It is packed 20 to a box and priced at $12.25 per cigar.
Shipments of all four cigars are beginning today.
