The new 4 1/2 x 60 size is the fourth size for the Knuckle Buster Habano blend

The new cigars come packaged in reusable packaging designed to look like beer cans and each cigar has a tie on it.

The Reserve Collection is made up of blends from H. Upmann, La Gloria Cubana, Macanudo, Montecristo, Punch and Romeo y Julieta.

Shady Moose uses tobaccos from six different countries.

Punch’s annual limited edition is scheduled to ship on February 1.

Once again, General has named after a cigar based on a dish found at an American Chinese food restaurant.

The cigar underwent an extreme makeover led by Matt Booth and Justin Andrews.

General Cigar Co. says it worked with Punch’s online fan club, The Punch Brotherhood, for three years to get feedback for this release. It will go to stores on June 1.

Cigars that are the result of a collaboration can lead to interesting results. For this cigar, Robert Caldwell of Lost&Found partnered with Justin Andrews of STG, the parent company of General Cigar Co. The result: two cigars that are blended around the same components.

The Punch Fu Manchu is the fourth release under General Cigar Co.’s Punch brand that is inspired by Asian foods and other themes in celebration of Chinese Lunar New Year. This time, the cigar was inspired by Dr. Fu Manchu, a character created by English author Sax Rohmer in 1913.

General Cigar Co.’s new CAO Pilón Añejo might mark the end of Rick Rodriguez’s tenure with CAO. It’s a new limited edition that will ship to stores on April 11.
