BRYAN, Texas - Messina Hof, one of the fastest growing and most award-winning wineries and resorts in Texas, announces a new partnership with Hight Cigars to produce a Messina Hof port barrel-aged infused cigar that will be available in Fall 2011.
Chip Hight, a native Houstonian, took his love for cigars and has launched his own cigar brand, Hight Cigars. Hight Cigars are created in Tabacalera Lorenzo Briones, a small factory in Esteli, Nicaragua, by a select group of the area's most highly skilled roleros. Every cigar is carefully produced and inspected to ensure the highest quality.
Each medium body Messina Hof Private Reserve Papa Paulo Port barrel-aged infused cigar will have 3-to-5 year old Nicaraguan puro and fillers and will be finished with 3-year-old Criollo binders and lightened Habano wrappers. Messina Hof's Private Reserve Papa Paulo Port has intense chocolate and cherry flavors and is aged in new French and new American oaks for one year each. Naturally fermented using high alcohol tolerant yeast producing creates for a smooth and fruity flavor.
"We are very excited about our partnership with Hight Cigars," said Paul Bonarrigo. "It gives us a chance to expand our Messina Hof offerings from our current ventures."
