At the 2018 IPCPR Trade Show, Caldwell Cigar Company introduced a Habano offering under its Eastern Standard line – appropriately titled the Eastern Standard Habano.
Eastern Standard Habano features a San Andres Sun Grown wrapper Habano wrapper over an Ecuadorian binder and a blend of Dominican and U.S. Pennsylvania filler. The cigar will be available in four sizes: Robusto, Double Robusto, Toro Extra, and Magnum. It is presented in 20-count boxes. Production is handled at the Tabacalera William Ventura factory in the Dominican Republic.
The Eastern Standard Habano joins the original Eastern Standard (Dark Connecticut) and Eastern Standard Midnight Express (Maduro) as regular offerings under the Eastern Standard band. In addition, a limited edition cigar called Eastern Standard Dos Firmas was introduced in 2016.
