今年3月,翘曲雪茄(Warped Cigars)的老板凯尔·盖利斯(Kyle Gellis)又成立了一家以他的姓氏为名字的新公司,名为盖利斯家族雪茄公司。成立后推出两个新的雪茄品牌,一款是春季发布的Marevas(马雷瓦斯),还有一款Saunter(漫步狗)在9月3日推出。

漫步狗只有一个尺寸,48环径,5.25英寸,罗布图。茄衣是厄瓜多尔种植的康涅狄格烟叶,茄套是厄瓜多尔烟叶,茄芯是尼加拉瓜、多米尼加的混合烟叶。在多米尼加共和国的岛屿雪茄厂(Tabacalera La Isla)卷制,每盒12支,每支15美元。未来可能会增加更多尺寸。

谈到雪茄的名字时,凯尔·盖利斯表示,Saunter是指缓慢、放松、不着急的行为,用来形容这款烟叶混合很合适。中等强度,混合复杂,细细品尝,有多种风味和差异。抽这支茄,你可以像漫步一样去享受。

雪茄的烟标上印制着一只意大利卡斯罗犬,这只狗的名字也叫Saunter,盖利斯养的一条狗,经常在办公室里闲逛。

这款雪茄是由翘曲雪茄公司负责经销。

Warped Cigars founder Kyle Gellis created a new company in March called Gellis Family Cigars and announced two brands to be marketed under the newly established entity: Marevas, which came out in the spring, and Saunter, which ships today. 

Saunter comes in only one size, a robusto measuring 5 1/4 inches by 48 ring gauge. It’s made with a Connecticut-seed wrapper from Ecuador, Ecuadoran binder and filler from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. Rolled in the Dominican Republic at Tabacalera La Isla (stylized as LA iSLA), Saunter comes in boxes of 12 and has a suggested retail price of $15 apiece. Gellis intends on adding more sizes to the brand in the future, but doesn’t have any exact dates. 

As to why the cigar is called Saunter, Gellis tells Cigar Aficionado: “Saunter refers to the act of a slow, relaxed manner, without hurry, and that is the reference to the blend. This is a complex, medium-bodied blend with a lot of deep flavors and nuances. It is to be enjoyed as if sauntering.”

Gellis added that the name also refers to his dog, a Cane Corso (depicted on the band) who’d saunter around the office. 

While Gellis Family Cigars is positioned as its own company, the brands under the new label are distributed by Warped.
