Today we have something quite special from Duran Premium Cigars. The Azan brand originated in Cuba in 1928, started by Chinese immigrants to the island. The brand was brought back from relative obscurity by Roberto P. Duran, who’s wife descended from the family who founded the brand. Today’s lucky winner will receive a ten count box of the Azan White Premium, a delicious cigar with a Ecuador Corojo wrapper around a blend of Nicaraguan and Brazilian fillers, a ten count box of the Azan Natural Maduro, with a dark, oily Maduro Corojo wrapper, and an Azan Xikar Xi1 cutter, provide your own fire and have many hours of enjoyment. The cigars are the Robusto Extra size, which is 5½” x 52. Thanks to Jack Toraño and Roberto P. Duran for providing this terrific gift.
Yesterday’s present was the Leccia Luchador El Gringo in the Frogsplash size. I smoked one (again, not from the box, it’s still sealed) and it was a very good smoke and burned for about an hour and a half. The worst part about it is that one feels that one still has a lot of tobacco left over when it gets too small to handle! I’m a big fan of the Luchador line, and I suspect the lucky winner today will be too. I need Schon Garrison to send me his address so I can ship this box off to him! Thanks again to Sam and Victoria at General Cigar Co. for sending this along!

Awesome giveaway. Have meet Miguel and he is a class act.
I would like to try an Azan.
Sign me up!
Congrats to yesterdays winner! I Never had these before!!
Congrats Schon! Today’s prize looks great! I can’t give an opinion on the cigars as I’m not familiar with the brand but it is a great prize offering. Thanks to Jack and Roberto! Can’t believe there’s only one day left…
Congrats Schon you’ve got a lot of frog splashing ahead of you! Thanks CigarCraig, Sam, and now Roberto and Jack.
Congrats Schon. Jack is a cool cat. Thank you Craig and Jack and Robert. It’s almost over so good luck everyone.
Congrats to Schon! These keep getting more and more interesting…
Excellent smokes that anyone would be lucky to win.
Pretty sweet looking package today!
Those Azans are terrific smokes. Thanks Craig, and to the folks at R. Duran.
Another incredible day being a Craigette is before us!
Would love to try these!
Love the holiday spirit and hope to get the chance to enjoy some cigars. Either way, thanks for the holiday cheer!
Great prize! Thanks!
This I have wanted to try for some time now! Yes
Great looking prize
Greetings. I have to say, the Azan White is one of the best sticks I’ve had in the past year. I have a couple left in my humidor and I’m waiting for the right time. Their Neya F8 is also a fantastic stick. Thanks for this giveaway! Happy holidays.
Can’t say I’m familiar with the Azan cigars, but I certainly am very familiar with Xikar since I own 3 of their cutters and 1 lighter. Well made tools from a great company that stands behind their products. Keep up the good work.
Very awesome!
Love to try those smokes.
Once again another cigar that would look great in my humidor, haven’t had the pleasure to try them. Thanks for the contest.
Congrats Schon! I have been eyeing the Xikar cutters. I even hinted that I wanted one for Chanukah but no luck. So today’s giveaway with 20 Azan cigars and an Azan Xikar cutter would be an awesome win! Good luck to all!
Congratulations to yesterday’s winner, and today, I’m gonna give ‘er hell to see if I can win today’s loot! YOW!
congrats Schon
Saw these guys at Tampa Cigar Bash. Didn’t try but look enticing and the cutter is awesome.
Another Great Prize!
Yet another I’ve not heard of, thanks for the giveaways Craig.
Never had this cigar…but would love to try it.
Thanks again for the contest
Another great giveaway. Thanks Craig and sponsors. MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!
Congrats to all the winners thus far! Not let me get some Azan!
Congrats to the winner. Good stuff that Azan.
I am not familiar with these at all.
This would be a nice score.
Would LOVE to give it atry
craig, i’m in again.
Great contest Craig. Thanks for putting this together.
Congratulations to Schon. The Azan lines are some fine cigars, thanks and Happy Holidays.
Cigars sound great and that cutter is sweet!
Hard to believe it’s day 11 already, sorry it has to end.
On the something day of Christmas the cigar gods brought to me. Some delicious cigars for Craig.
Welp. All my Christmas singing is done for the season.
Congrats Schon!
Azan’s make some amazing smokes!
This is amazing set!
Congrats! Now fit tomorrow’s winner….me!
Super nice! Congrats Schon!
Haven’t tried these either, but I would love to!
Heard good thing about Duran cigars.
Count me in. Thanks Craig!! The white Azan is great. Can’t wait to try the natural.
Have to say, it’s definitely obscure to me. I just tried a couple of puro Nicaraguans that I never heard of and don’t have the labels at hand. This sounds appealing!
Congrats to the winners and thanks for the contest
Thanks for the contest.
Getting down near the end of it. It’s been fun, Craig. Thanks again. Only had one Duran cigar and it was pretty good. Just never had a chance to revisit. Maybe this would be a good time !!!
Congrats to the winners. Would like to give these a try since I’ve never had the opportunity.
What a fantastic give away! Still room under the tree!
Wow, excellent prize!! Would love to win this!!
Great prizes congratulations to Schon , wish my name was up there
What??? Amazing, thanks so much
Very nice set!
Another great cigar to add to my bucket list. Thanks
A premium gift for one who truly appreciated cigars. Thanks for the contest. Happy holidays to all. Merry Christmas.
They both look delicious. I had to click the links to read through the details on them. Plus Azan is giving you a nice looking cutter!
Awesome! This would be a sweet score.
Congrats. Another day another great prize. Thanks again.
Good cigars
Great giveaway.
Only tried one Azan ever.
Sweet. Those are very nice
I haven’t heard of Duran Cigars before, but, I’m here to learn. Thanks.
Very nice package, thank you Jack Toraño. I’ll look for your product at my ‘local’
Great prize. Please pick me!
Looks great! Thanks!
Looks like it is a great brand to try
Those look great! And I’ve always wanted one of those cutters. 🙂
interesting history behind these gars and they sound good too.
Duran Duran … oh my. Looks great.
2 boxes and a cutter! Wow! Merry Christmas Craig! Thanks as always!
Great gift!
Don’t know much about these but I am sure they are great
Nice prize! I have a few diff Roberto P. Duran, but haven’t tried one yet or any Azan.
Craig, what a great selection of gifts you have put together ! Thanks again for putting this contest together.
The cigars sound great. And the addition of the Xikar is really gravy. I’ve had my gold Xikar for 4 years. Countless cuts and it’s still razor sharp.
11 is my lucky number…today…if i win…if I dont win…my lucky number changes to 12..
Never tried them but would like to.
Never tried the cigars, but they sound great. And the cutter looks sweet!!
Another sweet deal
Fantastic giveaway!
Keep reading about these havent had a chance to try them! Thanks again sir
That’s an excellent sounding cigar! An oily Corojo cannot be beat! Great giveaway General cigar, merry Christmas to you all.
I’ve heard only good things. I’d love to finally find out for myself.
Have tried them but heard they are wonderful.
durans are a solid smoke
Ok, so here’s trying again. Hope I win!
Thanks to Jack and Roberto and, of course, you, Craig!
Craig, thanks to you, Roberto and Jack for making this possible. The White sounds scrumptious with the Ecuadorian wrapper and Brazilian fillers! And the size is my favorite – like Goldilocks, it is not too small, and not too big. It is just right.
Good show Jack torano on a nice prize. Those cigars are very nice.
Life is good
booom!! I’m in !! another sweet giveaway!!
