    The 2 Guys Firecracker used to be a DPG Blue but they pulled the bait and switch and now have them made by Victor Sinclair.

    Actually 2 Guys didn't pull a bait an switch.. DPG just no longer makes the original firecracker. The band changed...
    This is a new Firecracker, made by La Flor Dominicana limited to 250 boxes.

    Press Release:

    March 23rd, 2015 (New Hampshire) - The original short format cigar with a fuse, is the Firecracker, measuring at just 3 x 50 and features a closed foot.

    In the Fall of 2014 The Cigar Authority and Two Guys Smoke Shop partnered up with a blind taste challenge. With 3 rounds and new releases, La Flor Dominicana walked away as the winner with nearly 500 consumers taking part.

    As a result in late 2014 David Garofalo, owner of Two Guys Shop approached Litto Gomez about doing a Limited Edition Firecracker of 250 boxes and the owner of La Flor Dominicana quickly signed onto the project.

    “With the unique nature and the size of this cigar it allowed us to utilize some more potent ligero creating a blend that is truly a firecracker of a cigar," said Jonathan Carney, Vice President of Sales who notified Two Guys Smoke Shop that the cigar is shipping from the La Flor Dominicana factory and will arrive at Two Guys Smoke Shop in early April.
    According to Litto Gomez, “When Dave asked us to make a cigar named The Firecracker, the mission was very clear. It is everything you'd expect it to be. Double Ligero with a kick.” The La Flor Dominicana Firecracker features a Sumatra wrapper from Ecuador with estate grown Dominican binder and fillers.

    “Strap yourself in, this is going to be powerful,” said David Garofalo, owner of Two Guys Smoke Shop who added, “I am excited to work with La Flor Dominicana on this project. It's going to be explosive.”

    There just too dam small for me to even consider. 3 1/2" x 50. I have no interest!

    The ring gauge is fine but a 3 1/2" cigar, that's crazy. If it were 4 1/2' or 5" I would be interested and wanting to try one.
    Of all the things I have lost in my lifetime, I miss my MIND the most!

    I don't want to get into an argument either. Let's just say I agree with you that it could have been relayed better.
