弗洛伊德雪茄公司(Freud Cigar Co.)将于2月晚些时候发布其最新雪茄,该品牌名为AlterEgo(第二自我),这个命名跟随了弗洛伊德的第一个常规产品线的品牌SuperEgo(超我),这个名字具有强烈的弗洛伊德色彩。不同的是,SuperEgo是在多米尼加共和国的威廉文图拉雪茄厂卷制的,这款AlterEgo是在埃拉迪奥·迪亚斯的迪亚兹卡布雷拉雪茄厂卷制的,这家小工厂是迪亚兹从日内瓦大卫杜夫公司离职后的创业企业,还是一家规模不大的雪茄厂。
这款AlterEgo使用的茄衣是墨西哥圣安德烈斯烟叶,茄套是印尼种植的苏门答腊种子烟叶,茄芯是多米尼加烟叶。使用了多个烟草品种: Pelo de Oro(金发)、Corojo(科罗霍)、Havana 92(哈瓦那92)、Piloto Cubano(古巴皮洛托)。
雪茄有三个尺寸:公牛,52环径,6英寸,零售价是每支28美元。罗布图,50环径,5英寸,零售价是26美元。朗斯代尔,43环径,6.5英寸,零售价是25美元。都是每盒10支的包装。
这是迪亚兹和弗洛伊德雪茄公司的第二次合作。第一次合作是去年发布的限量版雪茄阿加佩(Agape),是古希腊语,译为“爱的最高形式”。
本月底这款新茄将在美国拉斯维加斯的大卫杜夫雪茄酒吧举办新品发布会,随后在烟草+博览会上与零售商见面,预计3月份向零售商发货。这款雪茄从2022年2月份以来一直处于发酵状态。
Freud Cigar Co. is releasing its newest cigar later this month, a brand called AlterEgo that’s made with a variety of different tobaccos. According to Freud, these cigars have been aging since February of last year.
AlterEgo is made in the Dominican Republic by industry veteran Eladio Díaz at his Tabacalera Díaz Cabrera, a small factory that Diáz opened after departing Davidoff of Geneva and starting over on his own. The blend consists of a Mexican San Andrés wrapper, an Indonesian Sumatra binder and an entirely Dominican filler blend using a host of seed varieties: Pelo de Oro, Corojo, ’Havana 92 and Piloto Cubano.
The new brand comes in 10-count boxes and is offered in three sizes: Toro, measuring 6 inches by 52 ring gauge; a 5-by-50 Robusto; and a Lonsdale at 6 1/2 by 43. They will have suggested retail prices of $28, $26 and $25, respectively.
This is the second collaboration between Freud Cigar Co. and Díaz. The first joint project—Agape—was released last year as a one-size, limited-edition cigar. AlterEgo also follows Freud’s first regular-production brand, SuperEgo, which is made by William Ventura in the Dominican Republic.
AlterEgo will be introduced to retailers at the Tobacco Plus Expo trade show later this month before a launch party on February 23 at Davidoff Cigar Bar in Las Vegas. Retailers can expect the cigars to start shipping at the beginning of March.
