Karen Berger Cigars Shipping Tailgate Next Month
A new release from Karen Berger Cigars is, according to the company, “designed to be enjoyed in all four seasons while you and your crew are tailgating outside a ball game or concert and spending time with friends and loved ones.”
Tailgate by Karen Berger is a 6 x 52 toro featuring an Indonesian Sumatra wrapper covering Nicaraguan tobacco that is used for both the binder and filler. The new regular production release is being made at Estelí Cigars S.A. in Nicaragua.
In a press release and text conversation, Bruce Busch, vp of sales for Karen Berger Cigars, stated that the cigar box is designed to look like a classic truck and that the tailgate section of the box will open downwards in order to give access to the cigars inside.
According to the Busch, Tailgate will have an MSRP of $7.75 each—or $108.50 for a box of 14—and the cigars are scheduled to begin shipping to retailers on July 1.

I have been smoking cigars for over eight years. A documentary wedding photographer by trade, I spent seven years as a photojournalist for the Dallas Morning News and the Fort Worth Star Telegram. I started the cigar blog SmokingStogie in 2008 after realizing that there was a need for a cigar blog with better photographs and more in-depth information about each release. SmokingStogie quickly became one of the more influential cigar blogs on the internet, known for reviewing preproduction, prerelease, rare, extremely hard-to-find and expensive cigars. I am a co-founder of halfwheel and now serve as an editor for halfwheel.
