Espinosa Premium Cigars has announced the fifth installment of its “Las 6 Provincias Series”, ZDT.
ZDT is an acronym for “Zona de Tabaco.” This year’s iteration highlights the Cuba’s most recognized tobacco growing region, Pinar del Rio. The Las 6 Provincias ZDT is a box-pressed, 6 1⁄2 x 48, Short Churchill, made with Nicaraguan fillers and binder and wrapped in a Corojo Wrapper. This marks the first major release under the Espinosa brand using a Corojo wrapper.
Once again, Espinosa Premium Cigars teamed with local Cuban artist Eden Gutierrez to collaborate on the artwork and packaging for this project. The Las 6 Provincias ZDT is presented in a 20-count ornate ceramic jar, which is decorated throughout with artistic renderings of the tobacco making process.
“This is really a passion project for me, my son, and the team, we have been creative with this project since the beginning. This year’s project is simply beautiful,” commented Erik Espinosa in a press release.
The Las 6 Provincias ZDT will retail for $18 MSRP, with the 20-count display ceramic jar retailing for $360 MSRP.
Las 6 Provincias ZDT was blended by Espinosa Premium Cigars, and made at the San Lotano Factory in Ocotal, Nicaragua.
