Some nights deserve more than a quick cigar and a drink. This is one of them.
On Monday, May 18, Ash is bringing people together for a full evening built around great food, premium cigars, good whiskey, and the kind of laid-back atmosphere we love most. Our upcoming Ash Cigar Dinner will feature special guest Kurt Kendall, founder of 7-20-4 Cigars and owner of Twins Smoke Shop, for a night that starts with an incredible dinner at Saddle Up Saloon and finishes with an after party back at Ash Cigar Lounge.
This is not your average dinner event. It is a full night out designed for people who appreciate a great meal, a well-made cigar, and good company.
Guests will enjoy a chef-prepared multi-course dinner by Executive Chef Sacha, three premium 7-20-4 cigars, one craft cocktail, time outside by the water with the fire pits going, and a chance to spend the evening with one of the most respected names in the cigar world.
Meet Kurt Kendall of 7-20-4 Cigars
Kurt Kendall is the founder of 7-20-4 Cigars, a boutique cigar brand inspired by New Hampshire’s rich cigar history. A longtime retailer, cigar expert, and passionate historian of the trade, Kurt brought the 7-20-4 name back to life in 2006 as a tribute to the original Manchester-based brand founded in 1874.
Since then, he has grown 7-20-4 into a nationally recognized cigar line known for balanced blends, consistency, and a real respect for tradition, while still pushing boutique blending forward in a fresh way. His cigars are carried in tobacconists across the country, and he has built a strong following by doing something a lot of people in this industry forget to do: keeping premium cigars approachable.
That is a big part of what makes this event such a good fit for Ash.
Kurt is known for his deep cigar knowledge, easygoing style, and his belief that a great cigar should feel accessible, enjoyable, and rooted in real history. It is a philosophy he often sums up with the phrase: “Smoke a Piece of History.”
A Night Built Around Great Food and Great Cigars
The night begins at Saddle Up Saloon, where guests will settle in for a full chef-driven dinner created by Executive Chef Sacha. The menu brings serious flavor from start to finish and gives this event the kind of experience that feels worth getting out for.
The evening’s menu includes:
Appetizer: Homemade arancino stuffed with braised short ribs, finished with o’ju gravy, shaved Parmesan, crispy parsley, and truffle oil
First Course: Homemade spinach and ricotta ravioli with sausage ragù and creamy Parmesan sauce
Main Course: Whole pig roast with bourbon fire-roasted apple, roasted sweet potatoes, bacon collard greens, cornbread, and gravy
Dessert: Chocolate s’mores “cigar”
And one of the best parts of the night happens in between. Guests will have the chance to step outside for cigars by the water, with the fire pits going and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. After that, the night continues with an after-party back at Ash Cigar Lounge, where everyone can keep the evening going in a comfortable, relaxed setting.
Featuring 7-20-4 Cigars
This dinner will spotlight cigars from the 7-20-4 line, a brand that has earned a loyal following for good reason. Known for being balanced, well-made, and full of character, the lineup offers something for a wide range of smokers.
Some of the cigars that define the brand include:
7-20-4 Original: The cigar that started it all, offering a balanced medium-bodied profile with notes of cedar, earth, and subtle spice
7-20-4 WK Series: A smooth and approachable Connecticut with creamy texture, light spice, and a clean finish
7-20-4 Hustler Series: One of the brand’s most recognizable cigars, featuring a barber-pole wrapper and a layered profile with spice, earth, and sweetness
7-20-4 Factory 57A fuller-bodied option with a richer finish, deeper earth notes, natural sweetness, and more strength
7-20-4 Hustler “Dog Walker” A shorter smoke that still delivers plenty of complexity and flavor when time is limited
Whether you are already a fan of the brand or just curious to learn more, this dinner is a chance to enjoy 7-20-4 cigars in the best possible setting: good food, good people, and the chance to hear directly from Kurt himself.
