Watersound, Florida retailer Shore Thing Cigars has teamed up with Crowned Heads cigars to release the Shore Thing Exclusive by Crowned Heads.
Located in the Panama City Florida area, Shore Thing Cigars is owned by Paul Copeland and country music star, Luke Bryan. Ironically Bryan hails from Nashville, Tennessee, the hometown of Crowned Heads Cigars. Crowned Heads co-owner Jon Huber is also a well-known music aficionado.
The Shore Things Exclusive is produced by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr’s Tabacalera La Alianza factory. It features an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and filler. The cigars are available in one size – a 5 1/4 x 48 vitola. The cigars are packaged in ten-count boxes with total production for the project being 400 boxes. Pricing is set at $15.00 per cigar of $135.00 per box.
A launch party is scheduled for Friday, May 25th with Crowned Heads Brand Ambassador West Thornton in attendance. In addition, Sure Thing Cigars is currently taking orders on its website or by phone. The store is offering free shipping with the promo code LIGHTITUP.
“Crafting and blending a specific cigar is equivalent to mastering a perfect recipe to be served at dinner. You want something that will appeal to everyone at the table and you want to start with the best ingredients possible. When it came to a custom blend and the possibility of creating a delicious and well-balanced cigar, we chose a great cigar company and our hometown favorite, Crowned Heads from Nashville, TN. They have been a great supporter and close friend to Shore Thing Cigars since before we opened our doors on July 1, 2016,” commented Shore Things Cigars in a press release.
The retailer also noted the connection it has with Crowned Heads and music. “Music and cigars are so similar because you can take all of the different notes and rhythms and marinate them together to create a timeless harmony. Crowned Heads has done that for us and we are proud to offer this cigar to all of our friends and guests.”
