EGM Empyrean Launch night at The Emory Hotel, London
A Celestial Debut for a New Flagship Cigar
On 2 October 2025, EGM Cigars unveiled its most luxurious line yet — Empyrean — with an exclusive launch at the elegant Emory Hotel in Knightsbridge, London.
Named after the highest heaven in classical cosmology, Empyrean reflects the pinnacle of craftsmanship and flavour. With aged Dominican tobaccos, limited production, and bold luxury design, it’s a new standard in premium cigars.
Three Formats, One Heavenly Standard
The Empyrean line features three distinctive vitolas:
Heraldos (130mm × 55rg) – A creamy, aromatic Montesco for an elegant introduction.
Praxedes (145mm × 57rg) – A complex Pirámide with leather, cocoa, and spice.
Paraisos (170mm × 52rg) – A long-format masterpiece with earthy, chocolate notes and a refined finish.
Each cigar is aged 5 years, handcrafted totalmente a mano, and offers a medium-to-full bodied experience with exceptional draw and depth.
The Launch Evening: Moments to Remember
At the event, guests were greeted with cocktails and an immersive ambiance as the ballroom and rooftop spaces were transformed into a refuge of sophistication. A custom cigar carousel (commissioned for the evening) showcased the new line, becoming a central visual centerpiece.
Founder Ettore Moraschinelli delivered a keynote, speaking passionately about the journey behind Empyrean — from tobacco sourcing to aging, blending to packaging. Guests had the opportunity to sample Heraldos as their introduction, followed by Praxedes later in the evening. The third vitola, Paraisos, was highlighted in presentations and brought home by select guests.
As the night advanced, conversations circled around subtle shifts in flavour, draw mechanics, and the artistic inspirations behind the design. Many attendees left with a sampler pack of the Empyrean trio, allowing them to explore the line in their own time.
Tasting Expectations & Pairing Suggestions
While each smoker’s palate is unique, here’s what you might anticipate:
Heraldos offers enveloping tobacco sweetness, notes of cedar and toasted nuts, with an even, creamy finish.
Praxedes will develop more depth mid‑smoke — leather, cocoa, spice — with a slightly tighter draw early on.
Paraisos, with its length and taper, allows for a slow build of flavour — expect refined earth, touches of dark chocolate, and lingering complexity.
Where to Get It (and When)
Empyrean exclusively available at The Emory Hotel Cigar Merchant for the month of October 2025 consequently via selected luxury tobacconists, and MK Cigars. Given its limited production, we recommend signing up for notifications to be among the first to purchase or reserve.
Final Thoughts
The Empyrean line is not just a new cigar — it’s a statement: RGM Cigars aiming for new heights of artistry, exclusivity, and sensory depth. The October 2 launch in Knightsbridge set the tone — polished, immersive, unforgettable.
