I had one about 8yrs ago at the restaurant. The person there said they were made by Ashton. It was ok, I did not buy extra. For the price, it wasn't worth it.

A couple of the Pacific Ditkas from my desk at work. The lighter one is called the "Hall of Fame", and the toro is cal;led "Kick Ass". Both say "Produced in the Dominican Republic".

I think they may be rolled in the DR then labeled and tubed here, or they have multiple factories? Either way, they are definitely a better desk decoration than they are a smoke!

I think that is the case, Scott.

They usually are further back on my desk, they look like ski-poles for The Hulk figure that my guys gave me.

I got a few of the Pacific Cigar version sticks in tubes back in '07 at a Super Bowl pre-party. Ditka was an ass but his cigar guy was a pretty nice chap. Tried the Connecticut wrapped and it was like I was smoking air, extremely mild and little to no flavor. The thing was huge too, 7x60 or so. I was not impressed.
