Boutique Blends Cigars will launch La Boheme at the 2014 IPCPR Trade Show.  According to company President Rafael Nodal, La Boheme will be its own brand with its own identity.

Nodal posted on his personal Facebook page, the theme of La Boheme is “Uniting my 3 life passions, my love for Music, my love for Cuba and my love for Cigars. Medium to Full body. This blend is ‘Perfect, Just, Perfect'”.

Nodal confirmed that La Boheme will continue to be made in Dominican Republic at Tabacalera Palma and use tobacco from Jochi Blanco – both of which Boutique Blends has a strong relationship with.

As for the name Nodal said it was the name of one of his favorite operas as well as one of his favorite songs by Charles Aznavour in both French and Spanish.

As we reported in our Manufacturer Spotlight as a part of our 2014 IPCPR Preview Series, Boutique Blends is planning on a busy 2014 IPCPR Trade Show.  Nodal and his team are planning on several releases including the Aging Room Bin No. 1, the Aging Room M20 Fforrtissmo (a Maduro counterpart to 2013’s M21 ),  the new La Boheme line, and the Swag Black.
