The La Escepción Selectos Finos Cigar Jar (Ex. Italia 2011) is an exquisite Regional Edition cigar exclusively made for Italy by Habanos SA. With only 200 jars ever produced, this is possibly one of the rarest Regional Edition Jars in circulation.

Presenting 30 cigars inside each ceramic jar, each stick is measured at 165mm by 38 ring gauge, each Panatela is wrapped with a stunningly smooth reddish-brown wrapper sourced from the world-renowned Vuelta Abajo region in Cuba. So, you can expect it to deliver only the finest flavours a cigar could provide. Expect medium-bodied smoke with notes of nuts and dark chocolate.

In 2011, Cuban Cigar exclusive importer for Italy, Diadema S.P.A., convinced Habanos to bring back to life a marca that had been discontinued for more than half a century: La Escepción. Today, the brand owns just a few vitolas, just like this very limited smoke.
