September Releases: Part 3

Padron Family Reserve 85th
Padron released their Padron Family Reserve No. 47 on September 8th. They have changed the name to the 85th to commemorate Jose O. Padron's 85th birthday. The 85th has a Nicaraguan maduro wrapper along with a Nicaraguan binder and filler. This stick will come in a 5 ¼X50 Vitola and like the other Padron annual releases, this one will be a little pricey. Currently these sticks are selling for $20.00 a piece.
SWAG Limitado 99
Oliveros will be releasing their newest addition to the SWAG line in September. The '99 which is known as “The Infamous” was originally set to release in July but was pushed back to a September release. It will come in a 6X54 vitola and will be limited to a 2000 box release. The price of this stick comes in at about $6.00 which is fairly cheap considering the limited release and 1999 tobacco that is used in the filler.
Undercrown by Drew Estate
Drew Estate will also be releasing a new line this September. After the highly successful Liga Privada line, they have decided to release the similar Undercrown line. Rather than using the Connecticut wrapper that the Privadas use, they will use the Connecticut leaf in the filler and use a Mexican San Andres Negro wrapper. This stick will have five vitolas ranging from a 5X54 Robusto to a 6X60 Gordito. The Undercrown's MSRP ranges from $7.45-9.95.
