The urbane new Augusto Reyes City Limited Edition.

Fall 2008 , Page 15

They certainly stand out on a desk: nine limited-edition humidors by Augusto Reyes, each with a painted cover depicting a different city. Among them, there's New York and a sunset-silhouetted Statue of Liberty within a swirl of bright skyline and subway signs; Kiev sprouting with onion domes; Miami studded with sharks and palm trees.

Fortunately, all that color's not camouflage for some inferior, machine-tooled smoke: The 24 cigars contained in each humidor feature a Criollo 98 Dominican wrapper and Olor Dominicano binder, rolled around a filler blended of Habano Vuelta Arriba, Olor Dominicano and Criollo 98 tobaccos -- producing a balanced, medium-strength smoke of distinctive taste notes. Sizes range from a still-sizable lonsdale (5" x 40) -- inside a St. Petersburg humidor -- to an epic Presidente (7" x 50), appropriately boxed inside a brightly colored and dollar-emblazoned Las Vegas. Now you can show fidelity to the hometown (or favorite hideout from the law) of your choice.
