I happened upon this box art and remembered the post by HHeaven "cigars that didn't make it II" link below.

http://www.cigarbid.com/...geDisplay=0000000004447

I tried to do some research on this but came up empty. I wonder what would have prompted someone to name a cigar "Whate Slave"

Same thing as Playboy and Penthouse cigars today. Taking advantage of prurient attitudes to sell cigars.
