New Cigars and Accessories Coming Soon

Wednesday June 21, 2006
CAO Cubist Ashtray The Retail Tobacco Dealers of America will have their annual trade show in Las Vegas during July 17 to 19, 2006. The event is not open to the public, but is of great interest to cigar smokers everywhere. This is the time when cigar manufacturers announce and introduce new products to the market. In the weeks ahead, we will tell you more about some of the exciting new products that will soon be available, but today we received advance news from CAO that they will be unveiling their new Cubist Ashtray at the RTDA trade show next month.

The CAO Cubist Ashtray is a work of art as well as a functioning cigar ashtray. It measures 9” square, weighs 6 pounds, and accommodates 4 cigars. According to CAO Vice President Tim Ozgener “The translation of an idea to a design, and then the resolution of how to bring that concept into a practical working instrument is the theme behind the CAO Cubist Ashtray.” The company will also be launching their new Vision line of cigars, which they say will change the way cigars are made and packaged, forever.

In other cigar news, United Tobacco will unveil a new line of cigars at the RTDA trade show, under the EO Premium Brands trademark. The new 601 line will be manufactured in Nicaragua. These cigars are expected to be full bodied, and appeal to seasoned cigar smokers.
