JR Cigar continuing their 50th anniversary has announced the company is teaming up with AJ Fernandez to release an updated version of one of their oldest house brands โ€“ and it will only be produced once for this special occasion.

The JR Ultimate 50th Anniversary is crafted to pay homage to the Ultimate line, a series of exclusive cigars dating back almost 40 years. While the original JR Ultimateโ€™s are considered a higher-end budget line, this release updates and elevates the brand for a modern adult cigar smoker.

โ€œThe JR Ultimateโ€™s have been a part of our history almost since the beginning,โ€ says Davide Moro, CEO for JR Cigar. โ€œWe wanted to keep the traditional character and style of the brand, but offer a more complex and refined blend. We could think of no better person to bring this vision to life than AJ Fernandez.โ€

Hand crafted in Nicaragua at the famed Tabacalera AJ Fernandez cigar facility, the JR Ultimate 50th is rolled with aged Honduran and Nicaraguan fillers along with a rich San Andrรฉs binder and a flavorful Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper. Notes of coffee and earth are combined with hints of spice to bring adult cigar lovers that classic JR Ultimate flavor, but with a more refined profile and aroma.

Offered in a 10-count box, the JR Ultimate 50th Anniversary is available in one size: 54 X 6 Toro. This is a limited run cigar and will not be manufactured outside of this original release.

Priced at $9.99 per cigar; $99.95 per box, this cigar will be available June 30 exclusively at www.JRCigars.com.
