One of the most talked-about releases of the summer is now heading to shelves.

It’s called Hit & Run, a new cigar from Robert Caldwell and Matt Booth of Room101. It’s one of two projects the pair have created, this one coming from Tabacalera William Ventura in the Dominican Republic.

Blend-wise, it uses an Ecuadorian habano wrapper, Indonesian binder and Dominican fillers.

  • Hit & Run 46×6
  • Hit & Run 54×6
  • Hit & Run 52×4 3/4
  • Hit & Run 50×6
  • Hit & Run 60×5 1/8

Pricing is set between $10-13.50.

As for the other cigar, which is being made by A.J. Fernández in Nicaragua, it’s likely to come out at the end of September according to Caldwell. The cigar was originally named The Truth, but is being renamed due to a trademark issue.
