On October
18th, 2025, Selected Tobacco will unveil a singular release at Industrial Cigars in Frisco, TX, home of the
world’s first branded
Atabey Lounge. This exclusive release is a fusion
of artistry and time, 200 numbered travel humidors, each housing
ten extra-aged cigars
that are unique to this edition. |
|
The humidor itself is a statement piece. Finished in a piano lacquer of sun-washed white sand
and tranquil ocean blue tones, it
reflects the elegance of the Alfonso Añejo line while calling to mind the calm of a Caribbean horizon. Its hidden hinges, polished gold trim, and numbered plaques elevate
it beyond function into the rafters of collectible art. Dividing the aged treasures inside, one chambered humidifier with a fixed hygrometer to ensure proper storage. |
|
Inside, discover a pairing of cigars that represent true luxury. Each cigar has undergone additional years
of aging beyond the celebrated five-year post-roll process that
defines Selected Tobacco, rendering these vitolas unique to this release: |
|
|
|
5 Atabey Ritos (6 1/8 x 55) 5 Alfonso Añejo No. 3 (6 x 54) |
|
Together, they form a 10-cigar collection presented with the personalized humidor, available exclusively through
Industrial Cigars at an MSRP of
$600. |
|
The evening of the
release will be marked
by the presence of Selected
Tobacco’s founder, Nelson
Alfonso, alongside his son, Fabio
Alfonso,
who will personally present
the collection to guests. |
|
“This project
is
important to me because it transcends the cigar business,” said Dave Frakes, co-owner of Industrial Cigars. “It’s
about our families coming
together to celebrate two milestones: five years as the world’s first Atabey
Private Lounge and the Alfonso
family’s
175 years in tobacco.
Our relationship with Nelson has always been bigger than cigars,
we are family.” |
|
For the fortunate few who secure one of the 200 numbered humidors, this collection is an invitation to experience
the union of past
and present, a piece
of luxury to be smoked
and displayed. |
