丹尼斯·罗德曼（Dennis Rodman）是NBA球场上最有魅力的球员之一，在他效力NBA的14个赛季里，拿到了五枚总冠军戒指，是球场上一支势不可挡、独一无二的的力量。如今，这位曾经的篮板王也进入了雪茄行业，与梦想家雪茄公司（Dreamer Cigars）合作，他推出了名为“丹尼斯·罗德曼荣誉戒指”的限量版雪茄。
今年1月12日，芝加哥公牛队的12位曾经的球员、教练、球队管理层一道，在芝加哥联合中心接受芝加哥公牛队的荣誉戒指颁发仪式，包括迈克尔·乔丹、斯科蒂·皮蓬、菲尔·杰克逊和这个传奇王朝的许多其他知名人士一起获得了这项荣誉。罗德曼也在其中，但因为天气原因，他没有亲自到场参加典礼。
罗德曼的这个雪茄品牌名字就是取自这项活动获赠的荣誉戒指。罗德曼说，我希望雪茄爱好者们能喜欢这款特别版本的雪茄，和我一起庆祝获得芝加哥公牛队的这枚荣誉戒指。
雪茄只有一个尺寸，54环径，7英寸，丘吉尔尺寸，茄衣是厄瓜多尔种植的康涅狄格种子烟叶，茄套、茄芯烟叶都是尼加拉瓜烟叶。雪茄是在尼加拉瓜的SCT雪茄厂卷制的，这家雪茄厂是Rocky Khoury所有的。
这款雪茄是每盒20支装盒，一共生产了250盒。每一盒都有罗德曼的亲笔签名，并附带真品证书。梦想家雪茄公司还将其中三盒里装了称为“黄金门票”的凭证，有三个幸运的消费者可以进一步获得罗德曼的签名球衣。
梦想家雪茄公司首席执行官Adam Guard说，罗德曼是篮球传奇，也是真正的原创者。他的叛逆精神和独特风格无与伦比，我们期待用这款荣誉戒指品牌的雪茄来庆祝他的非凡成就。
这款雪茄将只在梦想家雪茄公司的网站销售，预计4月份发货，每盒售价397美元。
Dennis Rodman is arguably one of the biggest personalities to ever grace an NBA court. The rebounding-powerhouse was an unstoppable, one-of-a-kind force in his 14 seasons in the NBA, and his off-court persona largely mirrored his on-court play. Now, the retired Hall of Famer (who has five NBA championships on his resume) is venturing into the cigar industry, partnering with Dreamer Cigars to create his own line of limited-edition smokes called the Dennis Rodman Ring of Honor cigars.
The name pays homage to Rodman’s recent induction into the Chicago Bulls Ring of Honor, where he was joined by 12 other players, coaches and management personnel as part of the inaugural class celebrated on January 12 this year at the United Center in Chicago. Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Phil Jackson and a slew of other popular names from this legendary dynasty were honored alongside Rodman.
"I hope you enjoy this special edition cigar celebrating my induction into the Ring of Honor," says Rodman. While severe weather kept him from attending the ceremony in January, the new smokes offer him a continued opportunity to celebrate this honor with fans.
The limited-edition cigars will be available as a one-size release, a Churchill that measures 7 inches long by 54 ring gauge. The blend features a Connecticut-seed wrapper grown in Ecuador along with binder and filler tobacco from Nicaragua. The cigars are made by Rocky Khoury at his SCT factory in Nicaragua.
The Ring of Honor cigars will be available in 20-count boxes. Production was limited to just 250 boxes, or 5,000 cigars. Each box was personally autographed by Rodman and will come with a Certificate of Authenticity, but that’s not the only unique wrinkle with this release. Three of the boxes contain what Dreamer Cigars dubs a “Golden Ticket,” which upon receipt, will win the beholder a signed Dennis Rodman jersey.
"Dennis is not only a basketball legend but also a true original whose rebellious spirit and unique style is unmatched,” says Adam Guard, CEO of Dreamer Cigars. “With the Dennis Rodman Ring of Honor Cigar, we aim to capture the essence of Dennis's legacy and celebrate his extraordinary achievements."
The Ring of Honor cigars are available for pre-order now and are expected to begin shipping in April. Each box will carry a retail price of $397. Sales will be strictly limited to the Dreamer Cigars website, to learn more or to purchase, click here.
