The boutique brand Skel Ton was founded in 2016 by the German entrepreneur Tonio Neugebauer and has since stood for handmade cigars with an independent style, high quality and a clear message: "Life’s Too Short To Smoke Bad Cigars“. The brand name – a combination of „Skeleton“ and Tonio – as well as the distinctive logo with the dancing skeleton embody joie de vivre, freedom and individuality. The Skel Ton cigars are comparatively mild and differ from the brand’s more robust cigars. A Connecticut Shade wrapper from Ecuador is used for the cigars. The wrapper comes from Indonesia, while the filler comes from the Dominican Republic. This combination creates a rather creamy and smooth smoke with slightly nutty and balanced flavors.
