Moya Ruiz cigars have once again proved they can create unique presentations of their cigars. Most recently, the company was approached by Smoke Inn, one of the most prominent cigar lounge chains in Florida, to create a special cigar for their 13th installment of the popular Smoke Inn Microblend ™ Series.
The Moya Ruiz crew accepted the challenge and have created the Hand Gripper! The concept is two cigars connected together in order to resemble an actual pair of forearm flexing hand grippers.
Each cigar is a 5 x 52 robusto vitola that highlights an Ecuadorian Habano oscuro wrapper that encases a Nicaraguan binder and filler.
In the press release today, Danny Moya of Moya Ruiz Cigars, commented:
“For us the concept was simple, let’s create something that’s never been done before. We are the only company that has a utility patent to be able to connect two cigars together so we came up with The Hand Gripper. As a small company to be a part of Smoke Inn’s Microblend™ Series is a dream come true. We are honored to join some of the great cigar companies that are part of this series. We couldn’t be more thankful to Abe and the entire Smoke Inn team for supporting us since day one. “
The Hand Gripper is produced at Erik Espinosa’s Lazona Factory and will be a limited production of only 300 boxes containing 6 pairs of cigars (12-count box). MSRP has been set at $99.00/box.
The Hand Gripper will be released at Smoke Inn’s annual mega cigar event – The Great Smoke – being held February 16th, at the South Florida Fairgrounds in West Palm Beach, FL. Tickets to this event, which is the best deal in the state of Florida, can be purchased at www.thegreatsmoke.com.
Remaining boxes after the event will be available to the general public through their retail stores on February 18th and will be available on the Smoke Inn website www.smokeinn.com at Noon EST.
