Today, we look at what was inside the 2024 Smoke Inn Advent Calendar for day 5. Warning: spoiler alert.
An Advent calendar counts down the days until Christmas. This tradition is believed to have originated with the German Lutherans. The calendar features moveable parts, such as flaps, doors, or pockets, that reveal a daily surprise. In 2021, Smoke Inn released its first Advent Calendar, where the “surprise” is a different cigar daily. For the first time since 2021, Smoke Inn has redesigned the package.
Today’s reveal is the La Sirena Original from La Sirena Cigars. In 2014, La Sirena Cigars moved production of its eponymous flagship line to Erik Espinosa’s La Zona factory, where it has been produced ever since. The cigar features 100 percent Nicaraguan tobaccos. The size included appeared to be. 6 x 50 or 52 Toro. It was longer than the Prince and thinner than the King Poseidon (thanks to our loyal audience member Joe for catching this)

Mine measures 6 inches so it’s not a Prince. I’m guessing it’s a King Poseidon tho the ring appears smaller than a 60

We went back and validated this and determined you were right. Thanks for the catch.
