Brand owner Lou Cross of Lure Cigars™ has announced the release “The Last Cast” – the first Limited Edition cigar to honor the memory of his late father, Lou Cross Jr.
One of the last and fondest memories shared with him was enjoying a cigar and telling stories. He was a lifelong outdoorsman, avid fisherman, and a cigar enthusiast. “The Last Cast” is a phrase used when fishing to note the final cast of the day/night, just before the end of the outing. There’s hope for one more bite, one more thrilling moment, and one more tall tale to tell. Lure Cigars brings people together through ‘Tackle & Tobacco’ and encourages cigar enthusiasts to ‘Smoke Great Cigars & Tell Tall Tales.‘™
Following the company’s core line releases in Corojo Oscuro, and Habano, Lure Cigars™ now offers an elegant yet bold cigar in a limited-edition, double-banded, 6×52 toro. Rolled at Tabacalera Pages in Nicaragua, this tribute cigar features a toothy USA Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper, over binder tobacco from Ometepe, with filler tobaccos from Esteli, Condega, and Ometepe, Nicaragua. These cigars follow a similar presentation as in the previous releases, packed in 10-count sealed wax packs, wrapped in heavyweight craft stock (in tuxedo black), and also include Boveda® humidification.
This limited-edition release is available in one size:
“The Last Cast” 6×52 toro (MSRP $15.00/cigar) – Production limited to 1,200 cigars
With this third release, the company continues their commitment to offer the best possible cigars at an affordable price point. This Broadleaf blend was chosen for its popular and delicious flavor profile, offering notes of espresso, leather, dark fig, and baking spices. The allocated wrapper tobaccos were also selected for their attractive extra dark ebony shade. “The Last Cast” is a full-bodied, celebratory smoke that you will want to make time to slow down, smoke intentionally, and reminisce about time well spent with family and friends, especially those that are no longer with us.
The “The Last Cast” launches on June 1, 2024, at dad’s home lounge, Jerry’s Cigar Shop in Tallahassee, FL, the day that would have been his 91st birthday, the month Father’s Day is celebrated, and the month that he passed away last year. “The Last Cast” is also currently available for pre-order at our select retailers listing on the lurecigars.com website. Cigars will be shipping the first week in June nationwide. For a full list of retailers and more facts about the company, please visit lurecigars.com. Follow Lure Cigars on Instagram @lurecigars.
