Created to commemorate the founding of the Lord Byron brand—named in honor of the famed English poet George Gordon Byron—this distinguished release pays tribute to a rich legacy. Decades after Byron’s passing, the brand was established by José and Eusebio Alfonso, and today it remains in the hands of Nelson Alfonso, a sixth-generation descendant of its original founders.
Each humidor is a curated presentation of both cigars and accessories, offering not only a premium smoking experience but a tangible connection to the brand’s heritage. Inside, you’ll find 60 meticulously crafted cigars, featuring 15 each of four iconic vitolas from the Byron portfolio:
- Byron 1850 No. 3 (6 x 52)
- Byron 19th Century Grand Poemas (6 x 56)
- Byron 20th Century Habaneros (6 x 54)
- Byron 21st Century Elegantes (6 1/8 x 55)
All 60 cigars have undergone Selected Tobacco’s signature aging process of over five years, resulting in exceptional refinement. The outcome is what the company describes as an “unmatched flavor journey,” delivering evolving complexity and depth with every draw.
Two side drawers house a selection of refined accessories, including a three-finger cigar case and a coordinating ultramarine ashtray—each thoughtfully designed to pair seamlessly with the humidor.
The upper tray accommodates up to 20 cigars and rests above two hidden humidification chambers, revealed by lifting the dual Byron knobs. Beneath, a spacious lower compartment provides storage for the remaining cigars, ensuring optimal organization and preservation.
On the exterior, a gold-accented front panel adds a touch of elegance while discreetly concealing the hygrometer, temperature gauge, and integrated locking system, blending functionality with sophisticated design.
