What is Sylent Green and Why Should We Care?
What is Sylent Green? Sylent Green is the collaboration between Kevin Shahan of Cigar Prop and Kerr Viajante from Stogie Road Cigars. If you’re not familiar with these guys, they have a weekly show on YouTube every Monday night at 7:30 called I’d Tap That Cigar Show. I highly recommend you check it out. They have teamed up with Sintro Cigars, from the Dominican Republic, for the blending and manufacturing side of things.
Sylent Green is a one-time short run that comes in an interactive “Buddy Pack”. The Sylent Green Buddy Pack will feature 6 5X52 Robusto Premium Cigars; 2 from each blend. Each blend contains the green candela tobacco leaf in the filler. The package will also include a thank you letter with further instructions for what the customer is to do next.
On the thank you letter, there will be a QR code that you would scan. This leads to an online survey in which the customer will vote for which blend they think is the best. The blend with the most votes will go into full production later in 2022. That means that the future of the Sylent Green cigar line is left totally up to you, the cigar lovers out there.
Kerr Viajante says; “Kevin and I both are big fans of candela tobacco because of its unique flavor and the storied history of the tobacco. Kevin shared his vision with me, and I was all in immediately! Three different blends with different percentages of candela are in the filler. The candela is silent.”
Kevin Shahan says; “When I first imagined this cigar, I immediately wanted to partner with someone that shared the love of candela tobacco as much as I did, and there is only one person that shares the love of the green leaf as much as me, Kerr Viajante of Stogie Road Cigars”.
“For humanity’s sake, I had to work on this project. Kerr was talking about using real humans in the blends, “to make it real as the movie” . We tried a few like Kerr wanted then (no bueno) . Kevin suggested we try the Candela as a filler. Great idea, and no other humans were harmed after that.”said James Razmig Agopian.
