Fresh off the shipping of the HVC La Rosa 520 in mid-May, Reinier Lorenzo announced his next project, a regular production addition to the company’s portfolio called the HVC Edición Especial. The new cigar debuted in a single 6 x 52 Toro vitola at Havana Lounge and Cigar in Milwaukee, Wis. on May 30, with Lorenzo in attendance for the launch. A few months later, the line expanded with two more sizes, a girthy 6 x 56 ($9.40) and a smaller 5 x 46 Corona ($7.40), the latter of which comes in 50-count boxes while the other two sizes both come in 20-count cabinets. All of the sizes are available to all HVC accounts. As you may be aware, HVC Cigars traces its roots to Havana, Cuba, where Lorenzo was born and raised before coming to the United States several years ago. The cigars are a tribute to the city, starting with the company name which stands for Havana City, with the La Rosa 520 named for his previous address, while Cerro references the neighborhood in Havana he was from and The City is a simple nod to his hometown.
