Room 101 San Andres |
About a month ago, Room 101 Cigars posted a picture of the upcoming Room 101 San Andres. Not a lot of information was posted other than a caption “It’s coming”.
While it wasn’t a lot of information, the picture did provide an initial glimpse into what was coming.
Since then, quite a bit more information has been released. This is a new core line being added to the Room 101, and it marks Room 101’s sixth blend to be released since its inception back in 2010. The San Andres joins the original Room 101 (Honduran Semilla) and Room 101 Connecticut as core lines.
The cigars are packaged 25 or 50 to a box.
