Kevin Shahan from Cigar Prop announced a unique cigar release the other day in an online video. The new cigar is a collaboration between Untied Cigars and Cigar Prop, but it come with a twist, or should I say a challenge. The compnay’s would liek you to order 5-packs of these with out knowing anything more than the name of the cigar. No bled info, no factory, nothing, nada….
The limited 5-packs of the Stick and Stones will set your wallet back 15 bucks. That is not per cigar, it’s for the pack, so if you made it through grade school, you know that comes to 3 bucks a cigar. Now I know, you are going to want to know if it is good or not. I can’t answer that, I have not tried it. In fact I received a package in the mail and after pulling out all the packing material, there it was, like a Willy Wonka golden ticket...the 5 pack of Sticks & Stones.
I quickly noticed, it was from Cigar Prop, and then in bold black lettering on an orange back ground it stated “DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES’. I shook my head, what does that mean? OK, I gazed at the bottom of the pack and it smacked me like write in the old noodle, the Warning….
DO NOT OPEN TILL BROADCAST
WTF, what does that mean. Well I stuck them in the humidor and the next day, Kevin came on Facebook and gave his explanation, which he kindly put on his YouTube channel so I did not have to repeat it.
If you watched the video, you now know, that is not the broadcast he is taking about. That is just the teaser with a tad more info. The real broadcast, where you will open the pack and smoke the stick, is going to be held at the end of the month of April. Between now and then, Kevin plans to have a few more broadcasts about the Sticks and Stones.
A HUMBLE REQUEST FROM KEVIN SHAHAN
If you order these, and decide you need to open it up and smoke it before the end of April broadcast, Kevin humbly asks that you do not reveal what it is or your experience so that it does not kill the buzz.
If you want to order these and join in the fun, contact Kevin Shahan at [email protected] or message him on Facebook and he will hook you up.
That’s it, that is all I know. I think it is the craziest promotion of a cigar I have ever seen and I am waiting till it is time to experience it with others on the end of the month Cigar Prop broadcast.
