LFD Mystery cigar 5-packs

[grateful1]

Does anyone have a guess on what these are?

Also - weren't the 5-packs given out for free...well, if you bought a box of LFD....or were they for sale at the events?

I have/had one as well.

Nice smoke!

I didn't know if these were given out at an event - or sold.

I'll update my own post...

Seems the 5 packs were given out...and limited amounts of boxes were available.

the five packs were incentive on box purchases, or you could buy a single stick or five pack.  they were not free.  the free sample at cigar events has all but gone away.
thanks to the economy or legislation, depending on who you talk to, it is rare to get a cigar just for showing up.

That's interesting.

I know of three stores that had the event and the 5 packs were part of buying a box - or given as gifts.

Thanks for the feedback.

stores were given a certain number of five packs free with event orders and you could purchase boxes of the mystery cigar in a quantity based on how many boxes regular LFD cigars you ordered for the event.  if you were gifted this cigar without a purchase count yourself lucky.

I was at a charity cigar and dinner event last weekend and they gave these out. The guy was surprised I knew what it was.

Hmmm, seems it's a vendor dependent issue!

Thanks.
