Cigar Auction For Charity

Filed under: Cigars, Auctions

http://lounge.cigarfamily.com/vbclassified.php?do=ad&id=126The Arturo Fuente and J.C. Newman families are auctioning off dozens of highly prized cigars to raise money for their foundation, the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation, which donates proceeds to impoverished children living in the Dominican Republic, where the lauded cigars are produced. The foundation has already raised over $3 million for needy kids.

The auction will go on for another several days, though cigar connoisseurs are already in a bidding war over a selection of OpusX cigars from Carlos Fuente Jr.'s personal collection. With three days left before this particular auction's end, 37 eager bidders have notched the price to $6,500.

Half Smoked Cigar for Auction

Filed under: Cigars, Auctions

Why would a 56 year old half-smoked cigar be of any value to anybody? Because it was once smoked by Winston Churchill of course.  The former Prime Minster of the United Kingdom was about to give a speech in a ballroom where he was asked to extinguish his half burnt cigar. Churchill snubbed it on the ground and handed it to the constable standing next to him. This once souvenir to the constable is now being sold by his relatives.  The half ashed cigar will be going up for sale in April, but the amount is unknown as this is such an unusual auction.
