Vilafonte Designs a Cigar For Red Wine

Vilafonte
Cigars and after-dinner sippers such as brandy, port and whisky are a natural pairing but what about cigars and wine. Decanter reports that the South African producer Vilafonte has created a cigar that is meant to match with their wines. The cigars are called 'Series X' and are made lighter style using Cuban seed tobacco and a Sumatran wrapper. The theory is that a lighter bodied cigar will mesh well with red wine without overpowering it. Vilafonte producer Mike Ratcliffe (shown at the right, enjoying a cigar) says that he sees this as an ongoing project but doesn't want to take on the cigar market in any big way. The cigars are available through the Vilafonte website.

Thomas Pink's Mogul Shirt

Mogulshirt
Does your shirt really need a pocket for your cigar? Yes, says Thomas Pink. According to Fashion Week Daily, they are rolling out this shirt called the Mogul. The Mogul comes in pink or white and has a split breast pocket designed to hold your cigar on one side and a lighter or cutter on the other. The shirt costs $195 and the pocket is box-pleated so it will lay down nice and flat when not in use. Wear it with their previously released iPod tie and you may never need to own a man-purse.

CF Cigars

Cigar Catering, a service from CF Cigars that provide cigar rollers for parties and now the company has cigar rollers in 15 cities. Now, for all your holiday parties, they are introducing CF Cigar Servers, cigar-knowledgeable women who serve cigars to the guests. The company cautions that the lovely cigar servers are not for parties with a ‘bachelor/frat party’ type mentality.” It’s a nice idea but personally I think they should mix it up with some male cigar babes (after all there are plenty of cigar smokers who would also like to be served by a handsome man as well as a beautiful woman). CF Cigars also now manufactures flavored cigars which come in amaretto, chocolate, cognac, vanilla and other flavors.

Cigars: Felipe Gregorio 3 Tierras

by Deidre Woollard

3060000000048952
Well, this is unique, take a good look at this cigars, notice anything strange? They are actually each two cigars in one. The Felipe Gregorio 3 Tierras is a double-barrel cigar. The 3 Tierras concept is two mini-cigars, one of pure Dominican-grown piloto-Cubano leaf, the other of Habano #92 Nicaraguan tobacco. The two cigars are then merged into a pyramid-shaped head, which is wrapped for about 1/3 the length of the cigar with a third leaf of Brazilian Arapiraca. The three tobaccos, from three places, hence the name. It’s not the prettiest cigar I’ve ever seen and I wonder how evenly it burns. The cigar comes in two sizes: the Escopeta (Spanish for shotgun) which combines two 5 x 30 cigars and the 4-3/4 x 26 Lupara (a nickname for sawed-off shotgun in Sicily).

The cigars are presented 20 to a box, and retail for $4.80 (Escopeta, and $4.25 (Lupara). The 3 Tierras line is currently available from Felipe Gregorio.
