Yesterday we had a box of the Toraño Family Cigars Blends from the Vault. We had a record breaking number of entries for this, which says something for the popularity and quality of Toraño cigars. I’ve always enjoyed them and the people at the company have always been terrific. Today’s winner is Duane Holmes! Please forward me your details so we can get this out to you!
Welcome to the second half of this enormous project! Kicking off the second half of the contests is the newest offering from A. J. Fernandez, the Pinolero. Pinolero is a word used in Nicaragua for a “local” and this cigar is a Nicaraguan puro wrapped in proprietary Fernandez family leaves. I’ve smoked a few of these and loved them. While many have said they are powerfully strong, I found it on the high side of medium. It’s a delicious smoke and a box of these is a wonderful gift! But, that’s not all! I also have a five-pack of Emilio Cigars and an Emilio Cap! I see an Emilio AF 1 and 2, an Emilio Suave, what looks like Draig K and perhaps a La Musa, all exceptional cigars. Emilio is one of the hottest names out there in the boutique cigar world and these cigars are outstanding. It’s a holiday twofer!
Thanks to Clay and everyone at A.J. Fernandez and Gary and his team at Emilio for providing the presents for today’s contest! Leave a comment and check tomorrow to see if you won!
Until tomorrow,
CigarCraig
Rules
Here’s how you enter: leave a comment. That’s it, plain and simple. Tweets don’t count, but feel free to spread the word, only comments on this page count as an entry. Each day there will be a different prize and the winner will be drawn from that day’s comments. The winner will be announced on the next day’s post. The contest is open to everyone, even if you’ve won one of my contests in the past six months, but once you’ve won, you are ineligible to win again in this series of contests. All prizes will be mailed as soon as I get a chance to go to the post office, or whenever the sponsor decides to ship, whichever is the case, so don’t make me chase down your address! Please e-mail your contact information to 12days@cigarcraig.com as soon as possible!

Emilio and AJ make some rockin sticks. So far my favorite has been the AF2. Just can’t get enough of them….but hard to find locally.
I really like AJ Fernandez blends…..haven’t had this one yet and never have had an Emilio, so this would be a double bonus!
