United Cigars and Arnold Andre collaborated to celebrate the anniversary and the longest-running collaboration series in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>The Independence Firecracker measures 3 \u00bd x 50. It is fashioned with the original fuse on the head of each cigar to help light up the skies for this yearly collaboration series from United Cigars. Blended with ligero filler leaves from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua, cradled by a Dominican binder. The Independence Firecrackers use a Mexican Habano wrapper to bring the celebration together.<\/p>\n<p>With the 250th Anniversary celebration in mind, these limited-edition Firecrackers will be packed in collectible tins of 12 cigars. With \u2018Land of the \u00a0Free\u2019 and \u2018Home of the Brave\u2019 inscribed on the sides, the tin boxes can be inverted to become your personal ashtray after the cigars are enjoyed. The Independence Firecracker smokes as a medium-plus bodied cigar, with balanced strength courtesy of the dual country ligero blend.<\/p>\n<p>The Independence Firecracker will have a suggested retail price of $9 and is now shipping to retailers. Quantities are extremely limited, so be sure to secure your box of this release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Independence Firecracker began shipping to retailers in time for the US&#8217;s 250th birthday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":76629,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[49,55,2812,44],"tags":[10022,6296],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76625"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/21"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76625"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76625\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":76632,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76625\/revisions\/76632"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/76629"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76625"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76625"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76625"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
