Saludos,



Greetings, saints of San Cristobal. Habana Port Cigar Merchants is proud to announce our first cigar event in the Baton Rouge market. Ashton Cigars is launching a new cigar extension to the famous San Cristobal line: the San Cristobal Revelation. Habana Port Cigar Merchants is the first cigar shop to debut this new blend in Louisiana and one of the first in the country.



To celebrate this special cigar milestone, we will throw a cigar party in the state capital's finest draught house: the Bulldog. You will have a chance to be one of the first smokers to taste the new Revelation while pairing it with a fine whiskey. Here are the details so that you can gain access to this limited and exclusive event:



Location:

Date: Thursday, October 3, 2013

Time: 5 to 8 pm The Bulldog (4385 Perkins Rd, Baton Rouge, LA, next to our shop; click here for map): Thursday, October 3, 2013: 5 to 8 pm



Ticket - $20 (plus sales tax)

1. Your San Cristobal Revelation cigar sample.

2. A serving of whiskey to pair with the cigar compliments of Ashton Cigars.

3. 2 Raffle Tickets.

4. Our Ashton Cigar Sales Manager, Jared Biocca, will join us to share details of the cigar and company as Habana Port patrons are offered reserved seating in the Bulldog's courtyard along with a private bartender.



Because of the immense interest this event will garner, we are selling a maximum of 50 tickets (that you will have to present at the Bulldog courtyard) so be sure to visit any Habana Port location to secure your spot. We will also have event-specials and raffles (prizes include ashtrays, T-shirts, hats and cigars) during the evening. We will have a booth with San Cristobal cigars that will be available for sale. Credit card and cash will be accepted during the event. If you are not familiar with Ashton's San Cristobal cigar offerings, you can click here to read about the blends.



San Cristobal Revelation Notes

Originally introduced in 2007, San Cristobal has slowly but surely built up a strong, loyal customer following. Now, with momentum heading in the right direction, Ashton has added another thoroughbred to the burgeoning San Cristobal stable... handcrafted with passion and precision by the No. 1 Cigar of the Year factory: Jose “Pepin” Garcia's My Father Cigar Co. in Estelí, Nicaragua, San Cristobal Revelation features a lovely milk chocolate-hued Ecuador Sumatra wrapper along with a rich, vibrant blend of aged Nicaraguan tobaccos. Medium to full-bodied, these cigars offer a rich, earthy flavor-bouquet extenuated by decadent notes of leather, cedar, nuts and spice. And you will be surprised by the affordable price point on this line, too. We hope to see you at this one night-only cigar event.
