One of our New World favorites, Plasencia Cigars, is releasing a limited-edition blend to coincide with this year’s FIFA World Cup. The cigar, named Ehtëfal, is being presented on November 19 in Doha, Qatar, the host city of the World Cup. Later in November, Ehtëfal will then be shipped worldwide.

Ehtëfal means “celebration” in Arabic. For Plasencia Cigars, the World Cup is a celebration where the world comes together after the last difficult years. Nestor Andrés Plasencia of Plasencia Cigars says this cigar is perfect for celebrating the soccer matches taking place in Qatar.
