After successfully launching its annual limited-edition releases, Elegancia and Generoso, Ferio Tego will now launch its core line under its eponymous flagship brand, the Ferio Tego Summa.
“The word summa means a ‘comprehensive work’, a ‘summary or a synthesis of the body of work’ thus far. Ferio Tego Summa is a blend that embodies the diversity and complexity of the Ferio Tego Portfolio,” explained Ferio Tego co-owner, Michael Herklots in a press release. “The Summa blend highlights the incredible trifecta of body, flavor and intensity… and maximizes those levels with wonderful balance.”
Ferio Tego describes the profile of the Summa as follows:
The Ferio Tego Summa is an abundant cigar that is full flavored and full bodied with an intensity that is present, but graceful. The flavors are structured in such a way that creates a subtle but relentless crescendo of flavor and complexity without becoming overbearing. The velvety mouth feel preserves a lingering finish that skews towards a darker style of flavors but is complimented by an underlying buttery note that adds a touch of levity to the blend. Each Ferio Tego Summa vitola tells a unique version of the Summa story.
Blendwise, Ferio Tego Summa features an Ecuadorian-grown Corojo wrapper over an Ecuadorian Sumatra binder. According to Ferio Tego, the double Ecuador influence enhances the viscous mouth and finish. The fillers feature both Nicaraguan and Dominican tobaccos that according to Ferio Tego utilize the relationship of leaf position and aging to lead with flavor and body while balancing strength and avoiding ferocity. Production comes out of Tabacos de Exportación (TABADEX), the factory owned by Quesada Cigars.
The Ferio Tego Summa is being offered in four sizes: Corona Gorda (5 3/4 x 46, $18.00 MSRP/cigar), Robusto (5 x 50, $19.00 MSRP/cigar), Torpedo (6 1/4 x 52, MSRP $20.00/cigar), and Gordo (6 x 60, $21.00 MSRP/cigar. Each is presented in ten-count hinged Okume boxes.
Ferio Tego is currently shipping the Summa, and it will showcase the cigar at the 2023 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade show that opens July 7, 2023, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Distribution for Ferio Tego is handled by Davidoff of Geneva USA throughout the United States.
