Since last week marked the tenth anniversary of the launch of CigarCraig.com, I figured it would be appropriate to mark the occasion by giving away some cigars from some of the supporters who have helped me along in the journey over the last few years. But before we get to that, here’s a little bit of the CigarCraig.com backstory for those who don’t know it. In 1996 I developed a passion for premium cigars and ran across a usenet group that talked about such things, alt.smokers.cigars. By 2006 I had grown weary of participating in that group, and the WWW had grown to more advanced avenues of discourse such as websites and forums and such. I never really got into forums, but in 2009, sensing my need to have an outlet to drone on about cigars, my wife set me up with the CigarCraig.com domain for my 46th birthday, and the rest is history. Now, ten years later, I still drown on about cigars, and, oddly, people read my droning. I’ve attended many IPCPR shows, a bunch of large and small events, and made a great many wonderful friends who I wouldn’t have met otherwise. My thanks goes to you, my readers, those who chose to waste your valuable time reading my nonsense!
So, I’ll have another giveaway! I’ve assembled an assortment of cigars from my humidor representing some of my cigar advertisers. I might decide on two winners, in which case I’ll split up the cigars equitably and both winners will get an equally cool assortment!
Pictured is an idea of the cigars that will be included, more might be added! I’ll update on Sunday! So leave a comment on this post to enter! Usual rules apply, legal age, one entry per, yada, yada. I’ll select a winner, or winners, next Wednesday (right before leaving for Miami!) Thanks to everyone who’s supported CigarCraig.com over the last 10 years!
That’s all for today,
CigarCraig
Don’t need to be a part of the giveaway, but just wanted to say congrats. I do enjoy browsing the site every few days to see what’s new. Here’s to another 10!

Have a safe trip to Miami. Thankfully, the storm missed them so you won’t be flying into a cleanup zone. Congrats once again on your 10th anniversary. Say thanks to your wife from us for setting you up on the web.. Maybe she just wanted you to have an outlet to drone on that didn’t involve her having to listen?
