The United Cigars Stadium Series II collaboration with CLE Cigars begins shipping to retailers. The 2021 Stadium Series I did not make it to retailers, but the latest limited edition will be sure to please cigar enthusiasts and baseball fans alike. Celebrate Americas Pastime with the United Cigars Stadium Series collection, only 1000 hand-crafted chests were made to hold 12 CLE Corojo 11/18 cigars.
The CLE Corojo 11/18 features a Honduran Corojo wrapper with Honduran binder and fillers. Layered in two rows of six for a total of 12, the cigars are individually wrapped with the classic CLE tissue paper trademark and United Cigar themed pinstripes. Stadium Series I came with nine cigars for the nine innings of regulation baseball but for the second series the decision was made to add a few more.
“We had to go a few extra-innings to get this one done,” said Oliver Nivaud, Director of Operations for United Cigars. “Made the call to the Bullpen and got 3 more innings out of CLE.”
The United Cigars Stadium Series is scheduled to be a yearly release with a nod to the venues around the world that bring us sports and entertainment. As part of the United Cigars Series Unidas, the Stadium Series will continue to feature collaborations with select manufacturers. Stadium Series II begins shipping to retailers April 11th with a suggested retail of $120 per box.
