Tatuaje and Smoke Inn release the Anarchy NFT which includes the Anarchy Pale Horse Edition

Just under 12 years ago, Tatuaje and Smoke Inn teamed up on a cigar called Anarchy, the first cigar in the retailer’s Microblend range. Now they are collaborating to release an NFT of that cigar that comes with the option to buy more of the Anarchy cigars as well as a limited edition variant.

Seven Anarchy NFTs will be created, six of which will be auctioned in early 2023 via an as yet undisclosed platform. The seventh will be given to Abe Dababneh, Smoke Inn’s owner and Anarchy brand creator.

“I couldn’t imagine not owning one of these NFTs for myself and the company, which is where it all started,” Dababneh said via a press release. “For obvious reasons of conflict, we cannot be part of the bidding process. Our issued NFT will give us exactly the same privileges and offers as every other NFT holder,” he added.

Each NFT holder will receive a special 60-count collector’s box that includes 45 of the original Tatuaje Anarchy and 15 of the Anarchy Pale Horse Edition, which replaces the original Anarchy’s Nicaraguan habano maduro wrapper with a claro color quality wrapper, a lighter leaf color. , of unknown origin and variety. The Anarchy Pale Horse Edition has been released only once before, at the 2020 Great Smoke pre-event dinner. According to a press release, only 300 cigars have been made so far.

NFT holders will also receive a canvas version of their NFT, and will then be able to order up to 15 boxes of 15 Anarchy cigars per quarter, priced at $14 per cigar.

“I’ve never really understood NFTs, but when Abe presented his idea and explained how he wanted to bring back the original anarchy of this offering, I immediately wanted to be involved,” Pete Johnson said via a press release.

While fans of the Anarchy line may be happy to hear about the release, it also comes with some bad news.

“This very special NFT offering will put this cigar to rest forever, and will always be made available to the lucky people lucky enough to purchase one of the Tatuaje Anarchy NFTs,” said Dababneh. “I can’t wait to see what happens.”

A Smoke Inn representative has clarified that the additional cigars will be Tatuaje Anarchy, not Anarchy Pale Horse Edition.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the artisans’ work and the way a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I am the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury and the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Soccer League. I also work in a variety of roles for MLB.com, plus I’m a voice over artist. I previously covered Phoenix and the national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar snob magazine.
