What is this product?
The Byron 175 Tribute Set is an extraordinarily limited collector's release celebrating 175 years of the Byron legacy and the Alfonso family's dedication to cigar craftsmanship. This presentation contains four unique premium cigars, each representing a different chapter in Byron's history: the Byron 19th Century Grand Poemas (6" x 56), Byron 20th Century Habaneros (6" x 54), Byron 21st Century Elegantes (6⅛" x 55), and Byron 1850 No. 3 (6" x 52). Each cigar is individually housed in a precision-machined, cosmetic-grade aluminum tube.
Handcrafted at Tabacos de Costa Rica, every cigar features an Ecuadorian wrapper over carefully selected Dominican, Peruvian, and Nicaraguan long-fillers. The collection tells the story of Byron's evolution—from José and Eusebio Alfonso's original workshop in 1850s Cuba to Nelson Alfonso's modern revival.
Why this product?
This is not simply a sampler—it's a historical tribute showcasing four distinct Byron expressions that span nearly two centuries of tradition. Every cigar undergoes a minimum of four years of post-roll aging using Selected Tobacco's proprietary maturation process, which incorporates controlled humidity cycles and multiple cedar varietals to achieve exceptional balance, smoothness, and complexity.
From the original 19th-century inspiration to the commemorative Byron 1850 No. 3, each cigar offers a unique smoking experience while reflecting the brand's continued pursuit of perfection. With no additional production planned, this release is destined to become one of the most sought-after Byron collectibles—more than a collection of premium cigars, it's a tangible piece of cigar history.

What Makes This Cigar Special?

Storage and Handling
Ideal Humidity Range
Store your cigars between 65% and 70% relative humidity for optimal flavor, burn consistency, and structure. This range prevents cracking, swelling, and uneven combustion.
Temperature Matters
Keep cigars between 65°F and 70°F (18°C–21°C). Excess heat can damage oils and increase the risk of tobacco beetles, while cold environments can affect burn performance.
Stability Over Perfection
Consistency is more important than hitting an exact number. Sudden humidity swings can damage wrappers and affect draw. A stable environment protects your investment.
Recommended: 2-Way Humidity Control
For effortless maintenance, we recommend Boveda 2-Way Humidity Packs (65% or 69%) to maintain consistent humidity with no refilling, no monitoring stress, and no over-humidifying.
FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Byron 175 Tribute Set
The set contains four unique cigars representing different eras of Byron history: the 19th Century Grand Poemas (6" x 56), 20th Century Habaneros (6" x 54), 21st Century Elegantes (6⅛" x 55), and Byron 1850 No. 3 (6" x 52). Each cigar is individually housed in a precision-machined aluminum tube and handcrafted at Tabacos de Costa Rica using an Ecuadorian wrapper over Dominican, Peruvian, and Nicaraguan long-fillers.
This is a historical tribute commemorating 175 years of the Byron legacy, not a standard sampler. Every cigar undergoes a minimum of four years of post-roll aging using Selected Tobacco's proprietary maturation process with controlled humidity cycles and multiple cedar varietals. Each of the four cigars represents a distinct chapter in Byron's evolution from the 1850s to today, and with no additional production planned, this is an exceptionally limited collector's release.
The Byron 175 Tribute Set cigars fall in the mild to medium strength range, offering balance and complexity developed through at least four years of post-roll aging. The extended maturation process using controlled humidity and multiple cedar varietals creates smoothness and nuanced flavors suited to both contemplative smoking and special occasions.
Since each cigar is housed in its own aluminum tube, you can store the set as-is in your humidor at standard conditions (65-70% humidity, 65-70°F). The tubes provide individual protection, making this an ideal centerpiece for display while maintaining proper storage, though you may also remove the cigars from their tubes for traditional humidor aging if preferred.
This set is ideal for seasoned collectors, Byron enthusiasts, and discerning cigar smokers seeking an exceptionally rare luxury release. It's designed for those who appreciate the finest examples of cigar craftsmanship and understand the significance of owning a piece of Byron's storied legacy spanning nearly two centuries of tradition.
