Thanks for the info Pete, I can't wait to smoke some Dracs! So do you have a time limit on when people can turn in their tickets to give away the motorcycle? I imagine some people will keep their boxes sealed for awhile... And what are the plans for giving away the prize... flying people to Miami or LA and doing a big event? :grin:

Ryan, Yes the tickets need to be found and registered on the ticket website by Nov.30th . If all tickets are found before, the winning ticket will be drawn before. I will be flying to the store where the box was purchased for an event to give away the bike to the unlucky winner......

Ok I'm tired of searching (20 minutes) even though I could swear I read it here somewhere. Looking for Drac and Boris flavor profiles and confirmation on the possibility of an Oscuro wrapper on the Boris. Little help please.

Is this what you were looking for Mike....


“‘The Drac’ will be a 6 3/4-inch by 52-ring torpedo,” said Johnson. “It’s a long torpedo, with a very easy, elegant internal blend and a very big flavored Habano Maduro wrapper. It’s kind of like dressing an elegant man in his black cape!”

The Drac’s wrapper was grown in Ecuador, with the binder and filler leaves from Nicaragua. The cigars were made at Pepin Garcia’s My Father cigar factory in Esteli, Nicaragua. “The cigars will be in boxes of 13,” Johnson added. “The boxes are still in the coffin shape, but this will be a prettier coffin than for The Frank last year. It’s shiny and there’s a little touch of (fake) blood on the tooth coming out of the ‘D’.”

As the 2008 series featured “The Frank,” the 2009 Actor’s Series entry will be “Boris” in honor of Boris Karloff, who brought Frankenstein’s monster to life in 1932. “It’s in boxes of 10, with only 1,000 boxes to be produced. The boxes are white with a very elegant white band on the cigars,” said Johnson.

“It allows you to taste a version of the previous year’s Monster blend, but it’s not the exact blend. We’ve shortened the cigar – it’s 7 inches by 49 ring – and instead of Broadleaf, we put an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper with a rosado tone to it. It changes the cigar drastically, but it’s also made at My Father cigars in Nicaragua. Retailers who won the pick last year will get a nice little chunk of the sub-series and everybody else will be able to get some.”

Very cool Pete. Hope to pick up the golden ticket when you come to Addison and then you can make a return trip to come back out a few weeks later! Nice :thumbsup:
