Artesano Del Tobacco has announced the addition of a new Churchill vitola to its Viva La Vida Connecticut line, scheduled to debut at the 2026 Premium Cigar Association Trade Show (PCA26) in New Orleans.
The new size expands the existing line and was developed following feedback collected from customers. The Viva La Vida Connecticut Churchill features the same blend as the core line, consisting of Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos wrapped in an aged Ecuadorian Connecticut leaf. The cigars are produced in Estelí, Nicaragua, in collaboration with AJ Fernandez.
The new vitola is presented in a 7 x 54 Churchill format and will be packaged in 10-count white wooden boxes. Each cigar carries a suggested retail price of $16.00 per cigar.
The addition represents an extension of the Viva La Vida Connecticut line with a new format based on consumer input. Artesano Del Tobacco has indicated that the Viva La Vida Connecticut Churchill will be showcased at PCA 2026 (April 17–20, New Orleans) at Booth #3320.
