Custom cigar bands

Custom cigar bands your guests carry home.

Franklin Pichardo rolls every cigar in front of the guest who will smoke it, and the band it wears can carry your two names, your company’s logo or the name of your tournament. Everything else on the tables stays behind when the night ends. That cigar leaves in a pocket, with you on it.

Whose name goes on it

Whatever the night is for, the band says it out loud.

  • Yournames,stillinajacketpocketinMarch.

    At a wedding the cigar becomes the favor: rolled in front of each guest, with your two names and the date on the band. Favors get forgotten on the tables with the empty glasses. This one goes home, gets lit months later on somebody’s porch, and some bands come off in one piece and end up in the album.

  • Yourlogo,intheirhandslongaftertheevent.

    Everybody knows where the branded water bottle ends up. A cigar rolled for them by a master roller gets kept, passed around and photographed, and your mark is printed in full color on every one of them.

  • Yourtournament’sname,carriedoffthecourse.

    On a golf day the band can carry the tournament, the year or the sponsor who paid for the hole. At a charity outing it does a second job: cigars wearing the tournament’s name go up for auction, and the winning bidders take the day home in their pocket.

  • Onename,onthenightthatbelongstothem.

    A seventieth, a retirement, thirty years on the force. Everything else at the party is for everybody. The band is the one thing in the room printed with their name, on a cigar they watched being made for them.

Made in front of them

Rolled while they watch. Handed over with your name on it.

Rolled at the table
At a wedding

Anyone can order printed bands and slip them onto cigars out of a box. Here the cigar is made at the table, in front of the guest who will smoke it, so the band you choose is the only one it will ever wear.

That is why people keep it. They watched it being rolled, they read your name on it, and by the time they finally light it, it is a story they tell about your night.

How it works

You choose it when you book. He brings it to your night.

  1. 01

    Add it as you book

    When you check your date, one box puts your band on every cigar in your package. For a company event it goes into your proposal instead.

  2. 02

    Tell him what it says

    Two names and a date, a logo, a crest, the name of the tournament or a number that means something. The band is designed in full color for your event.

  3. 03

    Every cigar leaves wearing it

    On the night, each cigar he rolls goes to its guest with your band on it, from the first one to the last.

Picture your names, or your logo, on every cigar of the night. Start with the date.

Design yours when you book

Before you ask

What people ask about the bands.

No. They are an add-on you choose when you book, with one band for every cigar in your package, and you see exactly what they add before you confirm anything.
Yes. The bands are printed in full color, so your logo goes on as it is. For corporate events they are part of your proposal, along with the artwork.
Your two names and the date, and a monogram or a crest if you want one. Whatever fits on a band and means something to the two of you can go on it.
That is exactly what they become. Every guest gets a cigar rolled in front of them with your names on the band, and unlike most favors it does not stay behind on the table.
Yes. When you add bands, every cigar in your package wears one, so nobody goes home with a plain one.
No. They are made for the cigars Franklin rolls at your event, so they come with the night and not by themselves.
