The name of the cigar reminds me of a soccer player, or the boxer Renaldo Snipes who can be found hanging out smoking cigars all over New York City. But for me the one thing that stands out about the cigar is the fact it is produced by a home town boy, kinda. Having spent a lot of time in New Jersey over the last couple of years due to the location of my offices I have become a regular is a few local tobacconists. Over the years I ran into brand owner, Antonio Lam who is as down to earth as they come. Back at IPCPR he launched his cigar, Reinaldo and it has begun to show up everywhere local. According to Antonio the one thing that makes his cigar different is a unique fermentation process that he was not willing to discuss and prefers to keep a trade secret. The cigars come in 3 sizes, 5.5 x 50 robusto; 6 1/8 x 52 torpedo, and a 7 5/8 x 48 Churchill. Each size is slightly longer then the traditional vitola.
