Knuckle Sandwich Launches Its First Collaborative Cigar: The Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force

July 10, 2024 Inspector X 3 min read

Guy Fieri’s popular Knuckle Sandwich brand is making waves in the craft cigar scene with its first-ever collaborative release: the Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force cigar. This exciting new cigar is a joint effort between Fieri, Cigar Dojo, Espinosa Premium Cigars, and Smoke Inn Cigars.

Known for his bold culinary style and dynamic personality, Guy Fieri brings the same passion for flavour and quality to the world of cigars. The Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force is the latest addition to his Knuckle Sandwich line-up, showcasing a unique blend crafted with the expertise of Espinosa Premium Cigars and Cigar Dojo.

The Strike Force blend is the most complex in the Knuckle Sandwich portfolio to date. It features a mix of fillers from Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico, bound together with a Nicaraguan Corojo leaf and wrapped in a rich Pennsylvania Broadleaf. This combination results in a balanced, medium to full-bodied cigar that highlights the robust character of the Pennsylvania Broadleaf wrapper, the spicy nuances of the Nicaraguan Corojo binder, and the rich, syrupy flavours from the diverse filler blend.

The Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force cigar is all about teamwork,” remarked Eric Guttormson, owner of Cigar Dojo. “Combining the talents of the various ‘dojos,’ Strike Force shows off a profile unlike anything from Knuckle Sandwich to date! It’s a powerhouse blend that’s big on flavour with a long-lasting kick.”

The Knuckle Sandwich Strike Force will be available exclusively through a pre-order sale with retailer Smoke Inn Cigars. The pre-order period begins on July 15th at 12 pm (Eastern) and will continue until July 28th, ending at 11:59 pm (Eastern).

To secure a box of Strike Force, customers must place a non-refundable deposit of $30 per box. There is no limit to the number of boxes that can be pre-ordered. The deposit will be applied to the total cost of the product. The estimated delivery date for the product is November 2024. Once the cigars are ready for shipping, purchasers will receive an email notification and an update in their Smoke Inn account, prompting them to complete the sale by paying the remaining balance. Customers will have 30 days to finalize their order; failure to do so will result in forfeiture of both the order and the deposit.
