Titan Cigar will be hosting a Crown Royal "Cask No. 16" unveiling paired with the cigars of Rocky Patel. We will be getting in Rocky's new Decades and the ITC. November 30th from 6:30 pm to 12am. Crown Ambassadors and their Crown models will be pouring the whiskey. Everyone in a black tie or evening dress will recieve a free cigar. The theme is 007 James Bond, so be prepared to be "caught with more than your hands up."
Interesting idea. Too far for me to travel though. I don't think i've ever heard of a black tie event for cigars.
I've heard of these but they don't stoke alot of interest in me. I suppose they are somewhat common and thats why Cigar Aficionado refered to Cigar Fest as a "redneck herf" for not being (semi)formal.

A semi-formal event would be fine with me. Black tie would be tough since I dont own the outfit.
Likewise, no penguin suit. And the semiformal attire would detract from the informal relaxation I have associated with cigars.

The point of the black tie was not to snub anyone, or to degrade other herfs. The owner and I are big James Bond fans. We've been looking to have a 007 themed night. A black tie is not a requirement, but we are throwing in a free stick, if you wear one.
Hey Ezra
I didnt intend to show disrespect for your event. There is certianly no offense taken by your classy effort.

I think it sounds like a cool idea. I have my work XMas party at the same time though. Maybe i'll try to catch the next one.
