Some Final Big Game Thoughts and a Great New JR Cigar!

Big Game 50 came in with a bang and finished with a whimper. What many thought would a be contest destined for the highlight reels turned into a less than nail biting affair as the Denver Broncos dominated the Carolina Panthers 24-10 with their stifling defense. Bigger than the game itself was Cam Newton’s post-game sour grapes, and Beyoncé’s controversial bullet clad military jacket.  Even Peyton Manning’s impending retirement took a back seat to these hotly contested topics.

Now that the football season has finally ended its time to cope with those Sunday withdrawals by doing what we herfers do best, hang out with good friends and smoke some premium cigars. And while we are waiting for those first signs of spring when baseball’s pitchers and catchers report, I’d like to talk about a great new smoke made exclusively for JR CIGAR that just reported in to our “World’s Largest”  95,000 square foot, fully humidified warehouse.

The premium Black Lion Corojo Cigars comes from La Aurora, the oldest cigar factory still in operation in the Dominican Republic. This expertly crafted puro (made for JR) features a well-aged, reddish brown Corojo wrapper and choice hand-selected long fillers from the most fertile regions of the Dominican Republic. This is a medium-bodied smoke brimming with mouthwatering notes of coffee earth, spices, cedar, raisins, and cream. Best of all, the popular Black Lion Corojo Cigars by La Aurora have the perfect amount of balance, and intricate flavor to appeal to every smoker regardless of his or her strength preference. If you’ve never had the pleasure of smoking a La Aurora cigar, the Black Lion Corojo is a great place to start.

I realize that for our valued North Carolina customers that are still mourning over the loss of their beloved Panthers, another cigar blog is not going to cheer them up, but take solace in knowing that they are a very talented young team that will be a major force in the NFL next season. Therefore, here’s my plan… The next time you place an order online for your favorite premium cigars from JR, add a box of the delicious top-quality Black Lion Corojo Cigars to your cart. Then for good-luck, put one to sleep in your favorite humidor and save it to celebrate when Cam and the boys win it all next year! And just to play devil’s advocate, we recommend that our loyal BRONCO fans order a box today, and keep the party going!
