History and Background
The Selección No.54 entered the market as part of the Don Alfredo brand portfolio during the late 1960s. As a regular production item, it was manufactured for widespread distribution rather than limited release status. The cigar maintained its place in the lineup for roughly 14 years before being removed from production in 1982.
Vitola Details
This cigar was produced in the Marevas format, a classic Cuban vitola measuring 129 millimeters (approximately 5⅛ inches) in length with a ring gauge of 42. The Marevas size has traditionally been associated with elegant, medium-bodied smoking experiences. Each cigar carried an official weight of 8.46 grams, consistent with the hand-rolled construction methods employed by Cuban factories during this era.
Packaging
The Selección No.54 was presented in semi boîte nature boxes containing 25 cigars. This style of packaging featured the natural wood presentation that has become synonymous with premium Cuban cigar presentation. The cigars bore standard band A, the typical branding element for the Don Alfredo line.
