Helping to celebrate Corona Cigar Company’s 25th anniversary in 2022, Drew Estate has announced a new belicoso size of the recently-introduced 20 Acre Farm brand, offered exclusively through Corona Cigar retailers.
20 Acre Farm was announced in Nov. 2021 and began shipping a month later. The brand is somewhat of a followup to the former FSG line, likewise utilizing Jeff Borysiewicz’s (owner of Corona Cigar and the FSG farm) Florida Sun Grown tobacco. While the original FSG cigar offered a more robust blend—complete with Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper—the 20 Acre Farm seeks to highlight nuance and complexity. This is brought on through the use of an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper, a sun-grown Habano binder, and a filler blend of Nicaraguan tobaccos (Estelí and Jalapa) and Florida Sun Grown leaf.
“My farm team and I worked years to massage the soil to produce a tobacco that’s flavorful, intense and aromatic,” Jeff says. “The hard work has been rewarded by Drew Estate showcasing Florida Sun Grown tobacco as a key component in its 20 Acre Farms cigars. I’m very proud that it chose to make the Belicoso vitola exclusively for Corona Cigar Co.’s 25th Anniversary. Our customers can join our 25th Anniversary celebration by enjoying 20 Acre Farm in a format that accentuates the cigar’s sophisticated smoking characteristics.”
The former three sizes of Toro (6″ x 52), Robusto (5¼” x 54) and Gordito (6″ x 60) are now joined by the 7″ x 54 Belicoso, with the latter being exclusive to Corona. The cigar’s debut is scheduled for a March 3rd event, arriving in 20-count boxes that retail for $280 MSRP per box ($14/cigar).
