Me as a wee one with my bottle of Abyss
Maybe it's the Noob in me or just a bit curious but where did the name 'Shark' derived from for the Anejo #77?

The Añejo Shark was actually made and named because of Marvin Shanken (Cigar Aficionado owner). Carlito named it for him because he loved it so much when he gave it to him on a visit to his office. Thus he called it the Shanken Shark.
The "No.77" designation for the Shark comes not from the ring gauge of this cigar, as it does for the other cigars in the Añejo line, but rather from a more amusing reason altogether. Carlito took his kids to Sea World in Orlando, FL, and there noticed that some of the sharks in the tank had two pectoral fins, which looked sort of like two 7's.

LMAO! Actually I took this from another site, so someone must have stolen it from you before me. LOL!
