Room101 & Cigar Dojo’s [untitled] Collaboration Returns
The untitled collaboration cigar between Room101 and Cigar Dojo, often referred to as “Noodles,” is back.
Today the online cigar community announced that the cigar was returning for another limited run, though the cigars were rolled in the same batch as the original 2018 release, meaning they will be released with 18 months of age on them. The blend features a Mexican San Andrés wrapper, Sumatra binder and a mix of corojo 99, criollo 98 and HVA fillers.
“The Mexican San André wrapper and Sumatran binder are the components that make this such a great-tasting cigar,” noted Eric Guttormson, owner of Cigar Dogo. “Best of all, this is one of those cigars that seems to get better with age.”
The original vitola also returns, a 5 1/2 x 52 belicoso. A total of 5,000 cigars are being released, split into 10-count bundles carrying a suggested retail price of $99.95. They will go on sale through JR Cigar on Fri., Sept. 20 at 12pm EST, and Cigar Dojo members will get a member’s discount that brings the cost down to $89.95 per bundle.
What is new for this year is altered packaging and band designs, as the image of Matt Booth’s head has been removed from the bowl of ramen. But it’s not completely going away from the presentation.
Every purchase will receive a limited-edition challenge coin, displaying the head-in-bowl artwork. The challenge coins also show the Cigar Dojo design in a polished silver finish on the reverse side. Only 500 coins have been made and paired with the allotment of [untitled] (2019), with each bundle purchased also coming with a challenge coin.
“I’m pumped for the second helping on this project with The Dojonites,” noted Matt Booth in a press release. “It is a celebration of friendship, community, and an undying and insatiable lust for both cigars and fine ramen.”

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.
