The Operator
The Operator is a fearless yet humble professional of the U.S. Special Operations Forces with an extraordinary sense of physical and emotional grit. As an homage to the Operator, this medium-bodied cigar is draped in a beautiful Cameroon wrapper. It provides a luscious balance of natural sweetness, toasty nuttiness, baking spices, cocoa, and hints of pepper.

Operation Neptune Spear
This cigar selection honors Operation Neptune Spear, the mission of the U.S. Navy SEAL Team Six, which led to the successful finding and killing of Osama bin Laden on May 2, 2011. An enticing Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper encases a Habano binder with Nicaraguan filler — creating a medium-to-full bodied masterpiece with notes of leather, earth, bread, and espresso beans. The complexity teases the palate in a steady progression from start to finish, while the finish reflects all the blend’s best qualities.

These look so awesome and I love the backstory. I actually have never had anything from HY, but he is certainly on the radar now!
