History:
This is the first in a series of commemorative releases for the Chinese zodiac years, with this one celebrating the Year of the Rat. Previously, cigars had been released with Year of the Dog and Year of the Pig branding, however these were standard production cigars repackaged by the Spanish distributor, and not an official Habanos release.
The cigar is named variously as "8 Maravillas" and "Maravillas 8" in different locations on the packaging, internal flyers, and in the official press releases. Some distributor lists refer to the release as "Año de la Rata", however this term does not appear on the finished product.
