Limited series
Since 2000, Habanos has released three limited series on an annual basis, which have not been mass-produced so far. They are characterized by additional aging of at least 2 years on the tobacco leaves. Traditionally, these cigars are in limited edition. The requirement for them is to be different brands from the previous year and to be formats that have not been released for the respective brand so far. For 2019 the editions are Montecristo Supremos, Quai D’Orsay Senadores and Ramón Allones Allones N2, and for 2020 it is Partagas Legado.
Regional editions
This concept dates back to 2005, and the cigars produced in it can only be distributed in the territory to which the respective Habanos distributor is entitled. It is characterized by typical bearers of national and / or cultural identity. This is an unparalleled product, a business card for the country and a pride for any exquisite collection. The first Bulgarian regional edition is Bolivar 681, presented by Kaliman Caribe in 2011.
Limited editions Only La Casa del Habano
In 2006 Habanos launched an exclusive series of cigars of the same name – La Casa del Habano to be sold only in the eponymous boutiques worldwide. When the program begins, cigars are simply different vitolas produced in unlimited quantities. After 2011, Habanos changed this production policy to very limited quantities. Was also created a new series Habanos Specialist, which is part of the existing La Casa del Habano. Initially, this new series was not marked further, but in 2016 the first ring of this double special edition was realized. Cigars in this category can only be sold by the owners of the rights to the La Casa del Habano chain. This line dates back to 1990 and there is no specific circulation. The most limited series are 5,000 boxes.
Reserva
Three-year aging of all leaves included in the cigar with three-stage fermentation. Over 50 master blenders are involved in creating the recipe. The editions are presented in luxury boxes in a limited quantity of 5000 boxes.
Grand Reserva
The concept dates back to 2009. The five leaves involved in the composition of the cigars mature for a long and caring period of 5 years, during which the ideal physical parameters for their rest are monitored. This guarantees the composition an extremely fine, soft and balanced taste. It is the result of natural fermentation, in which the relative share of excess substances is reduced. And so the valuable essential oils are saturated and thus its aromas become brighter and more expressive.
Coleccion Habanos - Habanos Library
The beginning of the first Habanos "book" was given in 2002, when the first volume was presented - that of Cuaba. In each of the following years, the company consistently draws the attention of all aficionados around the world to one of the stories of its brands.
With the exception of the debut series, which comes out in 300 copies, all the others appear in a circulation of 500. The popularity of Cohiba at a later stage and the increased interest in previous editions gives reason to double the number from 2008 to 1000 boxes.
Since 2013, the circulation is already 2000 boxes for the whole world, but still remains very limited.
Habanos Replica
Until 2006, the term Replica was used only for those reproductions of old humidors that were offered at charity auctions at the Cigar Festivals in Cuba. Handcrafted masterpieces made by only one master entirely by hand (Cuban jeweler Ernesto Aligera). After their sale, the memory of them remained only in the brochures.
The trend was broken in 2006 when Habanos launched its most luxurious line – Replica de Humidor Antiguo, which combines collector's value and exceptional creative artistry. The leadership is taken over by Partagas with a Replica of a humidor from the early 20th century and the spectacular Sobresalientes format.
Followed by Romeo Y Julieta in 2008, Montecristo - 2009, Hoyo De Monterrey - 2010, RamonAllones - 2012, which put Bulgaria for the first time on the map of the world Habanos collecting.
Replica humidors are ultra limited editions – 250-450 worldwide.
Anejados
Like special wines, Habanos cigars become even richer in flavor if stored under strict requirements for a longer period of time. By maturing, cigars acquire a more complete appearance and have a softer taste on the palate. They have more pronounced notes of cedar, which has protected them throughout the years of aging.
Anejados is a unique concept of aged cigars in their original boxes for a period of at least 5 to 8 years. At the bottom of each box is placed the year of production, which is a guarantee for the aging period. The revisado seal ("verified") ensures that all storage conditions are met and that the cigars have the perfect qualities acquired by the aging process. A special Anejado ring complements the authenticity of the vitolas and certifies the category.
