Description

The original card suits were based on classes and can be traced back to France around 1480. Suits included: spades (royalty), clubs (peasants), hearts (clergy), and diamonds (merchants).

During World War II, American intelligence agencies were keen to help Allied POWs escape from German prison camps. To do this, they created what became known as Map Decks. These special decks of cards looked just like a regular deck; however, when the cards were wet the POWs were able to peel them apart, revealing a portion of a map. When this was done to the entire deck a map could be constructed, revealing secret escape routes.

It is believed that 32 POWs were able to escape Colditz Castle using the cards, and, by war’s end, the cards inspired over 300 escape attempts. This is the idea behind these cigars. It is an escape to everyday life.

These Cigars although unique are still brothers and sisters in arms. These Cigars are strength and character that can barely be contained by its box. The box symbolizes a deck of cards. You can also find hidden treasures within the box itself.
