Room 101 Namakubi

Although in many ways long gone, samurai culture is believed to live on in the spirit within certain groups. In ancient times when two samurai clans would gather for competition there was a great deal at stake. Normally, the losing party would die as a result of wounds sustained in battle or be executed upon defeat. The namakubi, or freshly severed head of the losing party would be prepared on a wooden tray then tagged in a regimented manner and presented to the leader of the winning clan as a gift.

We, as modern day samurai, present to you our own namakubi. These ten limited edition cigars have been tagged (banded), and carefully prepared for your enjoyment.
