迪翁·乔利托( Dion Giolito)的幻觉雪茄公司推出了一款烟标印有甲壳虫的的新品牌雪茄,该品牌已经在商店上架。这款名为“五人组”(The Group of Five)的雪茄只有一个尺寸,名为RB的罗布图。该公司表示,未来还将增加四个尺寸。

雪茄使用的烟叶是尼加拉瓜烟草,主要是克里奥罗98(Criollo ’98)、科罗霍99(Corojo ’99)品种烟叶,公司创始人迪翁·乔利托表示,茄芯烟叶使用的烟草是一款最近才在尼加拉瓜种植的新品种烟叶,在植株较高层的唯搜(Viso)烟叶。

雪茄52环径,5英寸,每支售价16美元。每盒15支,分为三层,每层五支。雪茄是委托尼加拉瓜的阿加诺萨烟草公司代工生产的。

和幻觉雪茄公司的其他品牌一样,这次推出的五人组雪茄的品牌也带有神秘主义和阴谋主义色彩。烟标的甲壳虫图案和古埃及的圣甲虫护身符相呼应。五人组这个名字是指一群有权势的人,他们的决定可以影响全世界。如果你觉得这个说法听起来有点新世界的秩序,那就对了。乔利托一直都是直言不讳的阴谋论者,他的雪茄烟标设计和包装涵盖的主题从联合国粮食及农业组织到秘密社团。至于影射谁是阴谋集团,乔利托可没有明说。

Beetles in the humidor are normally cause for great concern, but in this case a beetle is at the symbolic center of the newest Illusione brand, which is arriving in stores now. Called The Group of Five, this new cigar only has one size so far, a robusto called RB. The company says that four more sizes will follow in the future. 

The tobacco is all Nicaraguan, but there is (of course) a mysterious angle. The blend is made up mostly of Criollo ’98 and Corojo ’99—however company owner and founder Dion Giolito says that the filler has a “higher priming viso from a new varietal seed that hasn’t been grown in Nicaragua until recently.” 

Measuring 5 inches by 52 ring gauge, each RB has a suggested retail price of $16. The cigars come in 15-count boxes, arranged in three layers of five cigars. They are made in Nicaragua at the Aganorsa Leaf factory.

As with most Illusione releases, there are shades of mysticism and cryptic intrigue attached to the brand. The beetle motif, for example, echoes the scarab amulets of ancient Egypt, while the name “Group of Five” is a reference to a cabal of high-powered executives whose decisions have global impact. If it all sounds a bit New World Order, that’s not by mistake. Giolito is an outspoken conspiracy theorist, and his packaging often alludes to everything from U.F.O.s to secret societies. 

As to exactly who might be in that cabal, Giolito isn’t saying. They might be listening.
