30 Years of Elev8te Cigar with the Atabey Black Delirios

On August 30th, Nelson Alfonso of Selected Tobacco will unveil the Atabey Black Delirios, a 5 ¾ x 55 vitola, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Elev8te Cigar Lounge in Villa Park, Illinois.

Wrapped in a dark, oily Ecuadorian Maduro leaf, the Atabey Black Delirios conceals a Dominican binder and a thoughtful blend of Dominican and Peruvian fillers. True to Selected Tobacco’s standards, each cigar has been aged for five years post-roll in a proprietary environment of five distinct cedar varieties and French oak, with controlled humidity cycles.

To mark the occasion, ten cigars with personalized foot bands will be presented in each commemorative humidor, designed exclusively for this celebration. Each of the 300 humidors produced will come with a numbered plaque. The Atabey Black Delirios will have an MSRP of $50, with the complete commemorative ten-count humidor set available for $500.

“Thirty years in, we’re still just getting started. The Atabey Black Delirios is our victory cigar, created with the same passion, patience, and by a master in our industry,” shared Matthew Farokhian, Sam and Mike Khalil, owners of Elev8te Cigar Lounge. “Our passion for cigars shaped our journey. Light one up, and you’re part of our celebration.”

The anniversary festivities at Elev8te Cigar Lounge begin on August 30th, at the 250-person sold-out event, where the Atabey Black Delirios will make its debut.
