Creekside Cigar Co. to Launch Tradecraft Gladius Belicoso Limited Edition
Creekside Cigar Co. is proud to announce the upcoming launch of the Tradecraft Gladius Belicoso Limited Edition, a new and highly limited extension of Tradecraft’s full-bodied Gladius line.
For this special release, Tradecraft Cigars has selected Creekside as the launch shop for the Gladius Belicoso LE. The release gives cigar enthusiasts an early opportunity to experience a new format built around one of Tradecraft’s boldest blends, now presented in a 5½ x 52 Belicoso format.
The Gladius Belicoso LE is wrapped in Mexican San Andrés Maduro over an Ecuadorian Sumatra binder. Its complex filler recipe combines Dominican Criollo ’98 ligero, Ecuadorian Puntiao ligero, Pennsylvania Broadleaf, and Pennsylvania ligero. The result is a rich, full-flavored profile that brings depth, spice, earth, dark sweetness, and a robust character from first light through the finish.
While the blend remains true to the existing Gladius profile, the new Belicoso shape offers a distinctly different smoking experience. The tapered head concentrates the draw and allows smokers to tailor the cut to their preference, while the 5½ x 52 format gives the blend time to develop without becoming an all-night commitment.
Tradecraft produced just 150 boxes of the Gladius Belicoso LE, with 12 cigars per box, a total of 1,800 cigars for the entire release. Even more notable, the cigars were produced more than 14 months ahead of their debut, giving this limited run meaningful additional rest before reaching the market.
Tradecraft has put together a blend with a lot of personality, and the Belicoso format gives Gladius fans something genuinely different to experience. We are honored that they chose Creekside for the launch.
The Tradecraft Gladius Belicoso Limited Edition will be available for pre-order now through Creekside Cigar Co. Customers are encouraged to reserve their cigars early, as Creekside’s allocation is limited and pre-orders will be fulfilled as the product arrives. We are expecting these to ship out September 22nd.
Peace,
CP
