When a cigar is born from collaboration and carries the weight of meaning behind its blend, it needs to deliver more than just smoke it needs to tell a story.
The GEN 413, affectionately known as Genesis, does exactly that.
This collaboration between Definition Cigars and master blender Luciano Meirelles at Luciano Cigars isn’t just another release; it’s a deeply personal expression representing New Beginnings, Past Beginnings, and Present Beginnings.
Genesis, after all is the essence of everything.
