League of Fat Bastards (LOFB) Cigars has announced the release of the Skinny Bastarda, a new premium cigar collaboration with Quesada Cigars. Skinny Bastarda will debut at this year’s Premium Cigar Association (PCA) trade show. It is being handcrafted at the Quesada factory in the Dominican Republic under the leadership of Raquel and Patricia Quesada.
The Skinny Bastarda is a premium cigar crafted by women for women. In a press release announcing this release, LOFB stated that this new release celebrates female craftsmanship. At the same time, it recognizes and encourages cigar enthusiasts to continue to discuss and acknowledge the vital role women play in the mental well-being of men. LOFB has entered into the premium cigar category with a commitment to donate 40% of the net profits of its premium cigars to men’s mental health.
“This is truly a cigar made by women for women. The blend was created entirely by Raquel and Patricia without my involvement. To uphold this concept, they have even chosen to keep the blend a secret from me—and let’s be honest, women are much better at keeping secrets than men. But after smoking the cigar, I can confidently say that even men will thoroughly enjoy this exceptional creation,” stated the company’s founder, Adam J. Levine.
Raquel and Patricia Quesada issued a joint statement on the release of Skinny Bastarda: “As human beings, we are all unique in our own ways, but mental health is something that unites us because we can all relate to it one way or another. So, when Adam approached us for this project, we jumped at the opportunity to contribute to this amazing cause. We are so grateful for this opportunity and can’t wait to share it with the world!”
LOFB’s Skinny Bastarda will be available in five-count packs, each with a suggested retail price of $39.99 before applicable taxes. This product will officially launch at PCA25 in New Orleans on April 11-14, 2025.
