THIS CONTEST IS OVER. The winners were adamattoun in first place winning a box of 601 La Bombas and Jaelipp in 2nd place winning a 5-pack of Espinosa Habanos. Congrats to the winners and thank you to everyone who participated.
This year we awarded the Espinosa Habano as the best cigar of 2012, therefore let us toast to their success.
This weeks contest theme is: Best toasting and lighting pictures.
A good quality toasting and lighting image is one of the trickiest cigar shots to take, because it requires a third hand to get it done. We are looking for the best, most artistic, coolest image of you toasting and or lighting your cigar. Plan your composition, break out the cool filters and lets see some art!
This week’s contest leads up to Espinosa Cigars Smoke Night and we will announce the winners during the HERF on Friday night.
At the Cigar Dojo we are very thankful and appreciative of our members, we want to pass on that thanks in the form of free cigars! Round 13 will run from Tuesday February 5th at 10AM (MDT) and will end Friday February 8th at 9PM (MDT) the winners will be announced Friday night during the HERF.
