    I smoked one already...damn good. I wish they were available to buy. They'd make a nice Xmas gift. I flash the package at my wife and ran into the next room. She chased me thinking I had chocolate.

    Really ? Man they are huge. I sent one out, have 2 left (out of wrapper). They're yours if you want them.
    Good suggestion btw for a couple blinders in the monthly - I assume that was you lol

    Hmmm. I understand the desire to have clever marketing, but this is not going to help us keep the Gov't from increasing tobacco regulations. Trying to say premium cigars are different than flavored gas station cigars is going to get more difficult with things like this and some of the Lost & Found lines.
    To smoke is human; to smoke cigars, divine.

    The paperwork said they were done several years ago and I don't even know if they are for sale now. They did discuss on the show and it's not something they will try again. It was only meant to be cutesy and I would imagine it would have carried at least a $25 price tag.

    But I agree with your point - borders on marketing to minors as does some of those "cool names". Excellent point.

    I appreciate the offer but I'm not really a big ring smoker. I'll probably be giving my other 2 away also. Yes, that was me. I typo'd the email but I guess they got the idea.

    I haven't opened mine up yet but I can already tell you by the vitola I don't believe they will be something I will be smoking. I'm not a big rg guy so these aren't for me.

    Aw, come on man - I thought you said you liked them LOL I was psyched when I saw that
    All right - they will probably go into the troops donation category then, maybe one of my golf buddies will want to try them

    Join the club. It was a nice gesture and extra smokes are great but I just don't like them that big.

    Whats wrong with the size? Sometimes bigger is better. Did you not like that 80rg behemoth I sent you? @WNYTONY

    That package looks like a fun way to mess with any chocolate lover. Not a great idea for marketing though with all the anti-tobacco groups looking for more ammunition against cigar smokers.
