HVC 500th Years

Anniversary

When your customers see a cigar named the 500th Year Anniversary, they may think they’re smoking the oldest cigar brand in the world. But the truth is something much deeper. HVC released the 500th Year not to commemorate themselves, but the city that birthed brand founder Reinier Lorenzo, Havana City, Cuba. The HVC 500th Year Anniversary is a centerpiece of the old world brand’s portfolio. While HVC has not been around for long, they are, perhaps, the finest example of a modern cigar company relying on the practices and knowledge of pre-embargo Cuba, where the world fell in love with the practice of cigarmaking and perfecting the ideal blend. Consisting of tobacco harvested from the famed, lush AGANORSA farmlands, this Nicaraguan puro utilizes a Corojo 99 wrapper from Jalapa, a binder from Jalapa made up of undisclosed varietals and Criollo 98 and Corojo 99 fillers from Jalapa from Estelí. The flavors here are creaminess and nuttiness, backed by hints of wood and spice. There is a distinct peppery flavor as well that jumps out of the stick, making this an ideal cigar to pair with a glass of sweet rum, or a rum based cocktail. Red wines, such as Zinfandels, and German style beers will play off the naturally spunky Nicaraguan puro flavors. Boxed as a collector’s item, the all-black outer layer of this cigar gives way to a gorgeous golden etching of the Havana cityscape. When a cigar is this personal, it’s hard for it to disappoint. Lorenzo, who has crafted other amazing smokes like the Pan Caliente and the Hot Cake, poured his heart and soul into the 500th Years Anniversary because it tells a very important story. It also tells a long story. The construction of this cigar allows for hours of enjoyment; the kind of cigar your customers will need to clear a calendar for. While not extremely expensive, this cigar stands up to some of the most premium options on the market.
