Famous Smoke Shop adds Chairman's Choice premium cigars to their roster

EASTON, PA - March 14, 2007 - Famous Smoke Shop, the nation's leading discounter of imported premium handmade cigars, has just added Chairman's Choice cigars to their long list of premium cigar brands. These upscale Honduran-made premium cigars were originally released in 1996 and are marketed by the same distributor as the popular Cuban "exile" version of Troya cigars.

"The distributor wanted to clean house, so we took it all, and now we can offer Chairman's Choice to our customers at closeout prices," said Famous Smoke Shop general manager, Hal Odzic.

Available in four aptly-named frontmarks - "Chairman" (7" x 54 Torpedo), "President" (6 7/8" x  46 Churchill), "Treasurer" (6" x 50 Toro), and  "V.P." (5½" x 42 Corona) - Chairman's Choice is handmade with a mild blend of Honduran longfiller and binder tobaccos rolled in silky Ecuadorian Connecticut wrappers. 

"I found them similar to the old Zino Connoisseur line in taste," said Famous Smoke Shop cigar maven, Gary Korb. "The smoke is well-rounded with a somewhat dry, cedar-aged flavor on a short finish. Plus, these remaining boxes have been aging in the warehouse a long time, which has mellowed them considerably, too. I think the mild cigar smokers out there will really take to them."

Cigar smokers can order Chairman's Choice cigars by logging onto www.famous-smoke.com or by calling 1-800-564-2486.
