阿特诺萨烟草的章鱼系列口味浓郁，去年5月刚推出时有三个尺寸：大罗布图、大公牛、大比力高。去年9月份又推出“麻花”（culebra），如今，阿特诺萨公司准备推出第五个尺寸：Fry（鱼苗），预计6月14日开始发货。

新品仍然是委托尼加拉瓜的A.J. Fernandez卷制，48环径，4英寸，茄帽带有一个辫子。和章鱼系列的其他款式一样，新品的茄衣是墨西哥圣安德烈斯烟叶，茄套和茄芯是尼加拉瓜烟叶。这次茄衣烟叶经过了一点特殊发酵，以适应新品较短的尺寸。

这款Fry的外包装和其他尺寸有所不同，类似带翻盖的火彩盒，每个便携式的雪茄盒装有五支Fry，在美国的售价是每盒62美元，折合每支12.4美元，不过这款产品不单独销售。

阿特萨诺烟草公司是一家小型雪茄公司，老板是三兄弟，盖斯（Gus）、比利（Billy）、贝斯法基（ Bass Fakih），他们以前在纽约从事雪茄零售工作，2015年卖掉了门店开始自己的雪茄品牌创建工作。

The hearty and robust El Pulpo line from Artesano del Tobacco has a short new size called The Fry, and it’s expected to start shipping on June 14. 

Made in Nicaragua by A.J. Fernandez, The Fry measures 4 inches by 48 ring gauge and is topped with a pigtail cap. Like the rest of the El Pulpo line, it’s composed of a Mexican San Andrés wrapper and Nicaraguan tobacco. The wrapper on this smoke, however, was fermented a bit differently to better accommodate the cigar’s shorter length. 

The packaging differs as well. These cigars come in thick-ply, coated, cardboard five-packs with flip-top lids, a compartment for matches and a striking surface. Each travel pack has a suggested retail price $62 each, which works out to $12.40 per cigar. They are not sold individually.

The Fry brings El Pulpo to five sizes, including the Culebra, introduced last year, and the Belicoso Grande, Cigar Aficionado’s No. 10 cigar of 2023. 

Artesano del Tobacco is owned by Fakih brothers Billy, Geson “Gus” and Bass, former New York City retailers who created their own cigar brand in 2015.
