After 18 months of discussions, blending sessions, packaging design, and manufacturing, Espinosa Premium Cigars has officially announced a most anticipated collaborative cigar – the Knuckle Sandwich. This cigar is the result of the company having teamed up with restaurateur, Emmy Award-winning TV host and cigar smoker, Guy Fieri.
The Knuckle Sandwich cigars will be available in two blends, one with a Habano wrapper and the other with a dark Sumatra wrapper. These cigars are original blends crafted exclusively for Guy Fieri.
The Knuckle Sandwich Habano is offered in three regular production sizes:
- Corona Gorda R (5⅝ x 46) – $11.50 (Box of 20 cigars, $230)
- Robusto J (5 x 52) – $12.50 (Box of 20 cigars, $250)
- Toro H (6 x 54 – $13.50 (Box of 20 cigars, $270)
The Knuckle Sandwich Maduro is offered in three regular production sizes:
- Corona Gorda R (5⅝ x 46) – $11.95 (Box of 20 cigars, $239)
- Robusto J (5 x 52) – $12.95 (Box of 20 cigars, $259)
- Toro H (6 x 54 – $13.95 (Box of 20 cigars, $279)
Said Erik Espinosa:
“Guy’s a cigar guy, loves to smoke, and is super excited about this project. Just last week, he took a break from shooting one of his television shows, to join me as I visited several cigar shops throughout South Florida. The reception to both Guy and the cigars were overwhelming.
We are very excited with the level of enthusiasm Guy has brought to this project; and we are both looking forward to getting out there and promoting this brand. We truly believe that this will be one of the most highly anticipated releases of 2022.”
Espinosa Cigars will be handling both the sales and fulfillment of the new line. Both the Knuckle Sandwich Habano and Maduro were blended by Espinosa Premium Cigars, and hand-rolled at the San Lotano Factory in Ocotal, Nicaragua.
Knuckle Sandwich is expected to begin shipping in the first quarter of 2022
I will add this to my rotation. Sounds interesting. Thanks.
Sounds like Flavor Town to me !!
