This week’s contest is brought to you by La Sirena Cigars, read below for info on how to enter.
This week’s contest theme is: “Why I shouldn’t win”
As many of you know, a Cigar Dojo contest typically requires a little more effort or creativity than your average cigar contest, requiring hopeful entrants to go to new and daring lengths each week in order to prove their merit. But this week we’re taking a different approach – we want you to tell us why you shouldn’t win…
Some examples of a contest entry may be:
- Post a picture of your “party foul”
- Write a simple post, “I shouldn’t win because I’m a cigar-aholic”
- Anything that incriminates you as to why you shouldn’t win
Whatever you do, make it fun and original!
Warning: Cigar Dojo does not assume responsibility for injuries or accidents caused by this contest – Enter at your own risk

At Cigar Dojo, we are very thankful and appreciative of our members, and we want to pass on the appreciation in the form of free cigars! This week’s contest will run from Wednesday, July 30th at 6PM (MDT) and will end Friday, August 1st at 7PM (MDT). The winners will be announced on Friday night or Saturday morning on the Cigar Dojo app.
So let’s get started shall we?
And the PRIZES are….
Box of 20 La Sirena Merlion Cigars
Look out Dojo, because this week’s winners are in for a serious treat. There will be not one, but two 1st place winners this week!
Both winners this week will receive a new and sealed box of 20 La Sirena Merlion 5″ x 50 Robusto cigars. Released in 2012, the Merlion is created at the La Aurora cigar factory in the Dominican Republic with the medium bodied, full flavored smoker in mind. The cigar uses a Brazilian binder, Dominican, Nicaraguan, and Brazilian fillers, and a lovely Ecuadoran Corojo wrapper. The cigar excels from first puff – showing a perfect draw, silky smooth smoke, and pleasant, medium-bodied flavors of milk chocolate, spice, cedar, earth, and nuts.
This is a great cigar to have on hand, as it is loaded with flavor and is enjoyable to smoke at any time of day.
NOTE: This weeks winners will be picked by the Cigar Dojo staff. We will be judging the images on artistic quality and best overall image that fits in this weeks theme. Entries and extra credit will add to your chances, giving you a better shot at being picked.
