I want canned cigars. How do we make this happen?

I love the idea of vacuum packed cans of cigars rather then boxes. It makes so much sense from a storage point of view. And I know there are others here that will feel the same way as me.

What I'm wondering is how could we do to get canned cigars back on the market? Should we start emailing a large cigar maker or one of the big distributors like JR? Perhaps we should stick with working with a smaller company, Taboo comes to mind.

Seriously, what can we do to get a cigar company to sell a product there will be demand for?

Cans are not very environmentally friendly.

As cool of a marketing concept as that is; its whats inside that counts. If there are really good cigars in there, would you really want to have to open the whole can to smoke one? It's not like it's a box.

As a specific promotional item, I could see a can of five cigars.

I don't think paint cans are vacuum sealed.

Don't worry, I am sure either Gurkha or CAO is looking into it.

Each can contains forty to sixty handmade, select cigars and does an absolutely perfect job of keeping them as fresh as the day they were rolled.
You won't really know until you ask JR… or buy some.

The new Tatuaje Orange will be released in a limited edition Benjamin Moore can. Only 10 cans will be manufactured in this very limited release.
