HVC first developed this cigar in 2012, naming it both "The City" and "First Selection"; the former refering to Havana City, hometown of founder Reinier Lorenzo, and the latter showcasing the cigar as HVC's first available cigar. The cigar features an exquisite Corojo 99 wrapper over Nicaraguan binders and fillers.
At the 2018 ICPCR Convention, Reinier Lorenzo revealed the HVC First Selection Broadleaf, a Connecticut Broadleaf version of the original First Selection blend. This cigar is the first to feature a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper by HVC, as well as the first cigar produced at the TABSA factory to feature this wrapper.
