NELSON ALFONSO ANNOUNCES A LEGACY LOCKED IN LUXURY: BYRON’S 175TH ANNIVERSARY HUMIDOR

Madrid, Spain — This year, the Premium Cigar Association (PCA) trade show will bear witness to a landmark

in cigar history. To commemorate the 175th Anniversary of the prestigious Byron line, Nelson Alfonso of

Selected Tobacco has unveiled what is sure to be the most talked-about release at the show, a limited-edition

collector’s humidor that doesn’t just hold cigars; it holds history.

Created to honor the legacy of the Byron Century Blends, this opulent humidor is more than a showcase, it’s a

celebration. Only 175 individually numbered units will be made, a testament to the Alfonso’s family

tradition, innovation, and passion.

Byron 175th Anniversary Humidor features:

• Two sleek side drawers designed to house exclusive Byron accessories.

• A luxurious three-finger cigar case and matching ultramarine ashtray, both crafted to complement the humidor’s regal presence.

• An elegantly appointed top shelf, revealed by lifting twin Byron knobs, holding 20 cigars with concealed humidification chambers beneath.

• A secret lower chamber that unveils the remainder of the curated selection.

• A gold-accented front panel that discreetly conceals a hygrometer, temperature gauge, and locking mechanism.

• 175th Anniversary Commemorative Foot Band.

Each humidor includes an exclusive and carefully aged 60-cigar collection:

• 15 Byron 1850 No. 3 (6 x 52)

• 15 Byron 19th Century Grand Poemas (6 x 56)

• 15 Byron 20th Century Habaneros (6 x 54)

• 15 Byron 21st Century Elegantes (6 1/8 x 55)

Every cigar inside has undergone Selected Tobacco’s meticulous five-plus-year aging process, ensuring an unmatched flavor journey that evolves with every draw.

Nelson Alfonso, the visionary behind Selected Tobacco, shares “For me, Byron is not only a cigar. It is a story of my family, of my country, of the time. This humidor is to honor this story, one piece of my soul in each box.

We age the cigars with patience, with love. This is not only to smoke, it is to feel.”
