Davidoff is preparing to release a cigar bearing the name of country music singer Luke Bryan as an exclusive to Shore Thing Cigars in Santa Rosa Beach, Fla. The company and retailer began teasing the cigar over the weekend, with pre-orders being taken via Shore Thing Cigars’ online store.

The cigar uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over a Dominican binder and filler, which was selected by Bryan for a profile that is described as smooth, creamy and earthy. It is being released in a 5 x 54 robusto grande vitola priced at $32 per cigar, or $320 for a box of 10 cigars, which have been numbered and signed by Bryan.

A release date has not yet been announced, though a Davidoff representative said that a formal announcement is expected to be released by the end of the month. Messages sent to the store have not yet been returned.

Shore Thing Cigars also received an exclusive from Crowned Heads in May 2018.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
