This isn’t even close to the bottom of the barrel for NC gimmicks. It’s so, so much worse already.

[Fuzz]

I don't know whether to be offended by the name, packaging or both!

 

[SCgarman]

These NC cigar companies keep pumping out shit with asinine marketing gimmicks to convince the dumb suckers to part with their money and think they are buying a great product. Genius!

[Tstew75]

I will never be a NC fan, their cheese stinks.

[Burningman]

It's a big reason why I got away from the NC world. Gimmicks and hype men pushing stuff like this turns me off.

And here is the predecessor from 1-2 years ago.  The EGG ROLL, which for $4 each wasn't all that bad when I smoked some lol.

[joey rockets]

The Punch cigars in these Chinese boxes are strong stuff, heavy on the nicotine.

[Connoisseur Kim]

OMG... I sense too much of gimmick from this NC! This is the reason I prefer CC over NC.

[srbbones]

I'm holding out for the 8 x 100 Moo Shu Porker!

I wonder if there is a fortune cookie inside?. Saying "Man who puts cigars in fast food container, also puts soul in bin"

Agreed, grabbed a 5er when released and thought they were well worth the coin.  When I went back for more, they were sold out everywhere.  Maybe because they were a good bang for the buck, or more likely because of the packaging

From the article: "As a bonus, the inside of each band has a fortune that comes courtesy of snarky brand mascot Mr. Punch."

Fortunes were also included on the back of the Punch Egg Roll bands and included:

• Age is a high price to pay for maturity
• You are cleverly disguised as a responsible adult
• Hard work will pay off in the future. Laziness will pay off now.

Gimmicky box aside, it's nice to see a long skinny.

Can I smoke my chopsticks?

[ayepatz]

Is it April 1st already!?!

[bpm32]

It took me a moment to notice the chopsticks.

[BrightonCorgi]

Same Punch cigar used in the Rothschild 50 cabs for decades?

[anjimj]

Punch corojo arent bad but this BS no way.

Low? Hell this is the ugliest no sell sheit I’ve ever seen ?

[Wookie]

Crazy to think they stoop to such gimmickry when HSA simply does it with an extra band. ? Not sure who's "hit" rate is higher. 

[Trevor2118]

The only good thing about this is the 7" x 37 (with a shaggy foot) size.

...or three 

[Nino]

I would take the chopsticks in case of a dire emergency being out of cigars on an island - but I am pretty sure they won't draw and taste like .... ? rockets.
