Press Release: Guy Fieri, Espinosa Premium Cigars, & Cigar Dojo Team Up to Launch the “Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force” Cigar
Guy Fieri’s Espinosa Knuckle Sandwich brand expands its footprint in the craft cigar scene with its first-ever collaborative release, combining forces with Cigar Dojo, Espinosa Premium Cigars, and Smoke Inn Cigars. Introducing: the Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force cigar.
Guy Fieri, the culinary rockstar known for his bold flavors and larger-than-life personality, is turning up the heat with the latest creation from his Knuckle Sandwich brand. The Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force is the ultimate testament to Fieri’s flair for quality and flavor, crafted in cahoots with the cigar maestros at Espinosa Premium Cigars and Cigar Dojo.
Strike Force was blended to be the most diverse tobacco recipe in the Knuckle Sandwich portfolio to date. This includes fillers from Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico, being bound in a Nicaraguan Corojo leaf and topped with a ruddy Pennsylvania Broadleaf wrapper.
This concoction promises a balanced and medium to full-bodied flavor profile that highlights the gritty character of the Pennsylvania Broadleaf wrapper, the spicy undertones of the Nicaraguan Corojo binder, and the rich, syrupy notes from the diverse filler blend. It’s a force to be reckoned with!
“The Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force cigar is all about teamwork,” commented Eric Guttormson, owner of Cigar Dojo. “Combining the talents of the various ‘dojos,’ Strike Force shows off a profile unlike anything from Knuckle Sandwich to date! It’s a powerhouse blend that’s big on flavor with a long-lasting kick.”
The Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force will be offered through an exclusive pre-order sale with retailer Smoke Inn Cigars. Pre-order deposits will kickoff on July 15th at 12pm (Eastern) on Smoke Inn’s online storefront, and will continue through July 28th, ending at 11:59pm (Eastern).
Each box of Strike Force can be secured for a non-refundable deposit, requiring a $30 deposit for each and every box. There will be no limit on the quantity of boxes that may be secured, and the deposit value will be applied to the total product cost. Estimated delivery of the product will be in November of 2024. When the product becomes available for shipping, purchasers will receive an email and a notification in their Smoke Inn account, allowing for the completion of the sale by paying the balance due. Consumers will have 30 days to complete their order once notified, and those that fail to do so will forfeit their order(s) and $30 deposit(s).
