ZZ Top‘s Billy F. Gibbons already has his own line of barbecue sauce, cowboy boots, and, with the band, whisky, so why not a good cigar to complete the package?
He has joined forces with BandKandy to launch Virtu, an ultra premium cigar line developed in the Dominican Republic by Debonaire, and Twin Turbo, a two-pack rough-cut style cigar brand.
“I always enjoy seeing what a cigar brings to a party, even better when I’ve had my hands in the craftsmanship of my very own brands,” says Gibbons. “Light up, enjoy, and have mercy, my friends.”
Virtu by Billy Gibbons is a limited-edition 5000 piece collection, complete with a numbered high-end humidor that holds five hand-rolled cigars, and a custom-designed Zippo lighter.
Twin Turbo contains two cigars in a foil pouch and will be available in three different aromatic profiles.
