Villiger TAA 2020 | Bonus Episode | #leemack912 Cigar Review (S07 E150)
Wrapper: Ecuador (Sumatra), Binder: Nicaragua, Filler: Dominican Republic & Nicaragua

Every year, the group of retailers and manufacturers that is better known as the TAA, meets in Mexico or the Caribbean to discuss industry issues, engage in networking, and of course, sell a solid amount of cigars. About 80 retailers are in the organization, but they represent some of the biggest brick-and-mortar stores in the country, many with multiple locations and significant online stores. On the manufacturing side, about 40 companies are part of the group.

To sweeten the pot over the years, manufacturers have been offering the group exclusive access to cigars, sometimes a window of exclusivity for a new line, sometimes a new size in an existing line, or sometimes a new cigar, most of which are limited editions. Collectively these cigars are part of the Tobacconists’ Association of America Exclusive Series Program.

For this cigar, Villiger turned to a well-established cigar maker and factory in the Dominican Republic but one it hadn’t worked with previously: Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr. and Tabacalera La Alianza S.A.

The blend features an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, Nicaraguan binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. The cigar is a toro measuring 6 x 54 and which gets a box press. Just 10,000 cigars were produced, split into 500 boxes of 20 cigars. Boxes have an MSRP of $180, while single cigars are priced at $9, both before taxes.
