At the 2022 Premium Cigar Association Trade Show, Casa 1910 Cigars introduced three cigars under its Cavalry Edition. Keeping to Casa 1910’s ties to the history of Mexico, the Cavalry Edition pays homage to the horses and riders who fought in the Mexican revolution. The Cavalry Edition joins the two cigars in the Revolutionary Edition. The difference is that the cigars in the Revolutionary Edition are made in Mexico and the cigars in the Cavalry Edition are made in Nicaragua. There are three cigars in the Cavalry Edition Series.
As De Oro is 6 x 54 Toro that features a Habano Ecuador wrapper over a Negro San Andres binder and fillers from the Ometepe (Viso), Jalapa (Viso, Seco), and Estelí (Ligero) regions. The name comes from one of Mexican Revolutionary Emiliano Zapata’s strongest horses. Zapata fought one of his last battles on this horse. The cigar will be presented in ten-count boxes with an MSRP of $16.89.
Lucero is a 6 x 54 Torpedo that features a Habano Ecuador wrapper over a Negro San Andres binder and fillers from the Ometepe (Viso), Jalapa (Viso, Seco), and Estelí (Ligero) regions. This was named for Pancho Villa’s horse who stood out because of a white spot between her eyes. The cigar will be presented in ten-count boxes with an MSRP of $17.49.
The third cigar is 6 x 60 called Jilguero. This cigar utilizes a Mexican San Andres wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder from Estelí and fillers from Jalapa (Seco, Viso) and Estelí (Ligero). This is named for a dark stallion owned by Pancho Villa called “prieto”, which means “dark.” The cigar will be presented in ten-count boxes with an MSRP of $17.89.
