The Room101 Master Collection trilogy is complete. Scheduled to ship to retailers on February 9, the Master Collection Three is the final installment of the Master Collection series, which first debuted in late 2013.

"It is my favorite of the three," said brand owner Matt Booth. "The collection of three blends is supposed to offer the consumer balance between three flavor profiles. The new Master Collection Three has a bit more power to it in the body, however it carries the signature spice."

The Master Collection Three draws its strength from a combination of Ecuador Habano wrapper, a Dominican binder and Nicaraguan filler. It will be offered in five sizes: Papi Chulo, 4 inches by 42 ring; Roxxo 4 by 48; Mutante, 7 by 38; Sucio, 7 by 48; and Monstro, 5 by 60. All sizes come packaged in 20-count boxes with the exception of the Papi Chulo, which comes in boxes of 50.

The boxes are minimalist and glossy, enameled in a gleaming white piano finish and emblazoned with the company's signature sakura—a Japanese cherry blossom.

"All master collections have a distinct sakura mark," said Booth. "It symbolizes the short, yet beautiful, life of Japanese cherry blossoms."

All Room101 cigars are made in Honduras at the Agroindustrias Laepe S.A. factory. Though the brand is owned by Booth, it is distributed by Davidoff of Geneva. Enditem
