The Griffin's Cigar Tasting Event at the Smoke Ring

The Griffin is a legendary creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. As the lion was traditionally considered the king of beasts and the eagle the king of birds, the Griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. Griffins are normally known for guarding treasure. In antiquity it was a symbol of divine power and a guardian of the divine.

And so it is appropriate that this creature be on the band of one of the best cigars known.

This year’s special edition from The Griffin’s in the elegant Piramides format simply oozes charm. The tobacco blend for these medium-strength cigars consists of a combination of strong Piloto and San Vicente tobaccos, refined with a proportion of mild Olor tobaccos and a sun-ripened wrapper to round off the taste. The balanced and spicy aroma will fascinate every aficionado from the first draw. And for convenient smoking pleasure while travelling, each cigar is individually packaged in an attractive glass tubo and sealed with a cork. At the same time, the white special edition seal and the additional black ring show it off to its best advantage.

Carbon Fibre Cigar Case

Carbon fibre is an extremely light, stable and durable material. In other words, it is just the kind of quality material that lends itself to the development of cigar cases.

These beautifully designed cigar cases with a fascinating surface structure characteristic of carbon fibre are the result of a special production process using precision tools. The two parts fit together so perfectly that cigars kept in Griffin's cigar cases will remain in perfect condition for several days without requiring any further moistening.

The cases are available for two or three cigars of the size Corona or Double Corona/Robusto.

Griffin's Cigar Cutter

This new kind of cigar cutter from Griffin's has a modern design and two round precision blades with different diameters. It also features a spring system for ejecting the cut off tobacco.

The cutter is available in two exclusive surface finishes: plain anodized aluminium or ruthenium-coated aluminium.

The perfect cigar cutter for the modern aficionado.
