CigarCraig’s 12 Spectacular Days of Cigar Giveaways 2013 Day 10: Villiger Cigars

Happy Saturday before Christmas!  I’m now officially on vacation, so maybe it’s time to get to the shopping malls. They won’t be busy or anything will they?  Yesterday’s present under the tree was a box of Casa Miranda Chapter Two Toros from Miami Cigar and Co. It’s my understanding that Barry Stein has a bad case of pneumonia and strep throat, a nasty combination.  My best wishes for a speedy recovery, it’s no fun to be sick over the holidays, I’ve been there my friends. The oracle of Random.org has declared Brian Impson the winner of the Casa Mirandas.  Please forward your details, but I would ask you and Jeff K to be a little patient with Barry, don’t get too upset if he doesn’t ship your boxes out promptly. Let’s see what Day 10 has in store for us:

 

It’s Day 10, and I’m pleased to present, for the third year in a row, a fine present from Villiger Cigars!  The winner of this present will get a box of Villiger La Capitana Toros, and an “Unreleased Sampler” which is, as the name suggests, unreleased and only available at events. The sampler contains the Villiger Talanga Selecto Corona and Lancero, as well as the Colorado Torpedo, Diadama and what appears to be a pigtailed robusto.. I can personally vouch for the first two, and from the Villiger Colorado’s I’ve smoked, I can only imagine that these three sizes will be excellent.  For what it’s worth, I also really liked the La Capitanas, they are excellent cigars, they are a Nicaraguan puro, made completely with Nicaraguan Habano tobaccos. These are very tasty cigars! Villiger may not be the first name that comes to mind when you think of premium cigars, but it should be. They’ve been making cigars for 125 years, and their handmade cigars are exceptional.

CigarCraig’s 12 Spectacular Days of Cigar Giveaways 2013 Day 9: Miami Cigar and Co.

The 12 Spectacular Days of Cigar Giveaways train keeps a’rollin today, it’s day 9 and there’s light at the end of the tunnel. You all know that these contests run just about 24 hours, so there’s just about no “too late”.  I close the comments right before I write the next day’s post, around 6:30am.  And Ted, as much as I’d love to see everyone win, just handling 12 Days is plenty. We’re getting well over 100 entries a day, four months of contests would leave me dead, divorced, jobless and insane, in that order.  I’ll have to ask that you be happy with 12 days right now!  On with the show!  The random number generator spit out the number 107, which is ironic I guess. It would have been awkward if that number had come up a day earlier. I arrived at the name Mike McDonald as the 107th comment. Congrats and send me your address so I can get this shipped to you. Thank you Courtney and Bill at La Palina Cigars for providing this wonderful box.  They promise a load of new projects next year, so stay tuned! The fun continues with another spectacular offering from our friends at Miami Cigar and Co.:

 

Day 9

Under the tree today is a box of Casa Miranda Chapter Two Toros from Miami Cigar and Co.  These cigars are made at the My Father Factory in Esteli, Nicaragua under the watchful supervision of Don Pepin Garcia.  The blend consists of filler tobaccos from Brazil, Dominican Republic and Nicaragua wrapped in dark Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper.  These Toros are 5½ x 54 and come 15 to a box. These look really good, I’m looking forward to smoking one one of these days (these ship direct from Miami Cigar and Co., so I won’t be able to pilfer any!)
