曾經(jīng)在大衛(wèi)杜夫公司擔(dān)任生產(chǎn)和質(zhì)量控制主管的煙草老兵埃拉迪奧·迪亞茲從50歲就開始自己研究不尋常的煙葉混合配方，卷制雪茄紀(jì)念自己的生日,。2022年,，他從大衛(wèi)杜夫公司辭職，自己在多米尼加共和國創(chuàng)建了迪亞茲卡布雷拉雪茄廠,。今年,，是迪亞茲的71歲生日，他再次發(fā)布了一款包含你可能未聽說過的煙草的雪茄,。
這款周年紀(jì)念版雪茄的茄衣是厄瓜多爾種植的科羅霍99煙葉,，茄套是墨西哥圣安德雷斯煙葉，茄芯煙葉包含多種煙葉,，有點復(fù)雜,。有多米尼加種植的科羅霍煙葉，有多米尼加的哈瓦那92煙葉,，還有一些在橡木桶發(fā)酵過的HVA（Havana Vuelta Arriba）煙葉,。
茄芯煙葉里還使用了多米尼加共和國的一款不常使用的煙葉。這個地區(qū)叫圣胡安德拉·馬瓜納和拉斯馬塔斯·德·法爾凡（San Juan de la Maguana and Las Matas de Farfán）,，這里位于多米尼加共和國的島嶼中心,，在圣地亞哥的西南部，附近還有一個名為MAO的優(yōu)質(zhì)煙葉產(chǎn)區(qū),。海拔450米,，土壤的PH值高于多米尼加的北部地區(qū)。
迪亞茲認(rèn)為,，海拔高的地方,，種植出來煙葉強(qiáng)勁，煙霧越濃,。20世紀(jì)70年代農(nóng)民曾經(jīng)在這里種植煙葉,，但由于種植成本較高，政府沒有補(bǔ)貼，農(nóng)民后來轉(zhuǎn)而種植其他作物,。2020年開始,，政府再次提供補(bǔ)貼，支持農(nóng)民種植煙草,。
埃拉迪奧·迪亞茲71周年只有一個尺寸,，54環(huán)徑，6英寸,，公牛品型,。每盒10支裝，每盒250美元,，折合每支25美元,。一共生產(chǎn)2000盒。雪茄由美國的阿朗戈雪茄公司（Arango Cigar Co.）經(jīng)銷,，預(yù)計10月第一周運往零售商,。
Tobacco veteran Eladio Diaz has been making a non-commercial blend to celebrate his birthday ever since he was 50 years old. He’s best known for his tenure as head of production and quality control for Davidoff of Geneva before going out on his own in 2022. This year, he turned 71 and to celebrate, he’s making his birthday blend available to the public—but it contains tobacco from a region you’ve probably never heard of before.
Made in the Dominican Republic at Diaz’s Tabacalera Diaz Cabrera (TDC) factory, the anniversary cigar consists of an Ecuadoran Corojo ’99 wrapper, Mexican San Andrés binder and a somewhat complicated filler blend. There’s Dominican Corojo, Dominican Habano ’92, and some barrel-aged Havana Vuelta Arriba (HVA). But the filler blend also includes a leaf from an area in the Dominican Republic not commonly used by cigarmakers.
Diaz has turned to San Juan de la Maguana and Las Matas de Farfán for an alternative tobacco appellation. It’s an area southwest of Santiago and Mao (where much of the tobacco for premium cigars is grown) and it’s located closer to the Haitian border in the center of the island. According to Diaz, the fields are 450 meters above sea level causing the pH levels of the soil to be higher than the tobacco farms in the northern part of the country. He believes the higher altitude results in stronger tobacco that produces a creamier smoke. Tobacco, Diaz says, used to be grown here in the 1970s, but farmers changed to other crops due to the high cost and lack of government funding. Support from the government returned in 2020.
The Eladio Diaz 71 Aniversario cigars are made in only one size, a Toro measuring 6 inches by 54 ring gauge. They come in 10-count boxes (only 2,000 boxes are being released) and retail for $250 per box, or $25 per cigar. Distributed by Arango Cigar Co., the new smokes are expected ship to retailers the first week of October.
