Lure The Fat Matt — A Peacock Bass Tribute Now Available August 14
Lure Cigars adds a new name to its roster of personal tributes, and this one's a family matter. The Fat Matt honors Matt, the father of founder Lou Cross' son's fiancée and an avid Peacock Bass angler in South Florida, whose catch now anchors the vivid band art on this limited Robusto Grande.

Rolled at La Tabacaria in Estelí, Nicaragua, the blend opens with cedar, earth, leather, and spice, the silky Habano wrapper smoothing out the ligero-heavy binder for a full-bodied but balanced finish. It's a follow-up to the Nereus, released earlier this year, and continues Lure's tradition of naming small-batch releases after the people who shape founder Lou Cross' world. Limited to approximately 20 retailers worldwide.
