2022 was marked for being the year when the brand Rafael González stepped into the worldwide market with a new image. Its packaging complies with the requirements of the European Union and is presented with a redesigned band and has significant improvements in its printing technology, resulting in accurate colour shades allowing for a more proficient view of the graphic details.

The new Regional Edition for Portugal was also launched during the event, El Rey del Mundo Templários, with a 54 ring gauge x 120 mm length, with a light to medium strength. The name of this vitola is inspired by the mysteries and myths of the Order of Knights Templar, which is closely related to the Portuguese history. Especially for this Regional Edition, a painting was made, which is included in each cigar box through a small digigraphy and a QR code which leads to a video with the author painting interpretation.
