Punch Cigars Announces "Egg Roll" | Cigar News by Kaplowitz

"All the news that's fit to poach."


Wanna smoke a cigar that leaves you starving for another an hour later? Wanna order a cigar with no MSG, then wonder if they're adding it anyways? Keeping Kosher, so you need your pork chopped up really small for plausible denial's sake? What am I getting at?

Punch has apparently announced the April 1 arrival to market of the "Egg Roll." April 1, huh? I'll bite (punintentionally speaking). I did notice that both Cigar Dave & Halfwheel covered this on 3/9 & 3/10, respectively -- and I don't imagine them to make for excellent prank partners.

So yes, here we go... The Punch Egg Roll is said to be inspired by Chinese cuisine, the Americanized version, thereof and particularly. It's an LE offering, offered in a Rothschild format replete w/ shaggy foot in ode to the cabbage guts of the fried food addition to any combo platter worth a damn.

The blend itself will see a Connie Broadleaf over Ecuadorian Sumatra binder and fillers from Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, and Canal St... I mean the USofA. That'll all be 'rolled' (get it?) at General Cigar’s HATSA factory in DanlĂ­, Honduras -- then placed into 25ct bundles made to mimic or pay homage to the iconic Chinese takeout box. Oh, and the inside of every band will include a fortune.


Is Matt Booth handling Punch marketing? Is this even legit? Dunno. I can tell ya this, though -- KAPLOWITZ MEDIA is premium tobacco infotainment. "Infotainment also called soft news, is a type of media, usually television, that provides a combination of information and entertainment." - Wikipedia

So in the portmanteau -- "or portmanteau word is a linguistic blend of words, in which parts of multiple words or their phones (sounds) are combined into a new word, as in smog, coined by blending smoke and fog, or motel, from motor and hotel." - Wikipedia -- of info|tainment, I'll just note the ratio of ingredients can, and will, fluctuate.

The production run is set to be 3K of them bundles. I think I need one to smoke on Christmas Day when every other place is closed.
