Luciano Meirelles, ceo and co-founder of Luciano Cigars, developed the line with Mike Dounoulis, Luciano Cigars’ regional sales manager, and Frank Cossio, co-owner of Astorian Cigar Co. in West Palm Beach, Fla. The blend, which the company says took about a year to finalize, uses an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, dual binders from Nicaragua and Ecuador, and fillers from Nicaragua, Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic.

Foreign Affair is offered in four vitolas, which are produced at the Luciano Cigars factory in Estelí, Nicaragua.

Foreign Affair Corona (5 5/8 x 42) — $9.50 (Box of 24, $228)
Foreign Affair Rothschild (4 1/2 x 48) — $10.35 (Box of 24, $248.40)
Foreign Affair Toro Extra (6 1/2 x 52) — $11.80 (Box of 24, $283.20) REVIEWED TODAY
Foreign Affair Belicoso (6 x 54) — $12.50 (Box of 24, $300)

“There is something extraordinarily magical that occurs in the shared space of smoke, cigars, and people,” Meirelles said in a press release. “It’s as if barriers are bridged, and guards lowered. The experience goes beyond language, culture, gender, or any sense of otherness. Varied pathways lead to this common ground, a sacred ambience where we can connect and understand that no matter how foreign we may be to one another, the humanity in us overwhelms our perceptive differences. Those once strangers to one another are brought together, under the influence of a worldly cigar.”

Dounoulis added that the idea behind the cigar was to convey the unique and transcendent connection that happens between people when enjoying cigars. “This cigar to me is emblematic of the relationships and bonds we’re able to build in our industry,” he added.
