Kentucky Twist
(no bourbon barrel)
  • Filler: Dominican Republic, Nicaragua
  • Binder: Dominican Republic
  • Wrapper: Connecticut Shade, Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro

This attractive and intriguing dual-wrapper torpedo bellows an aroma of leather and straw. The draw is quite open, and the burn is even from start to finish. The ash, silky and soft.
The "Twist" consists of dark chocolate and almond at the front. The nutty notes lead into a toasty finish with leather and hints of cocoa. It is a perfect compliment to a nice Single-Barrel Kentucky Bourbon or a pint of Porter or Stout.
The Twist proves to be a "top-shelf" cigar and a guaranteed pleaser. Looks and a premium smoke.


Kentucky Fire-Tipped
  • Filler: Dominican Republic
  • Binder: Dominican Republic
  • Wrapper: Connecticut Shade

This well-rolled, blonde churchill is set-off by the unique, redish-brown cap. It is easy-drawing, and the burn even at the heart of the cigar. The aroma consists of fig and cedar, and the ash is powdery white.
The "Fire-Tipped" is creamy with cedar and cocoa, and has a peppery, spicy finish. It is a perfect compliment to a snifter of fine Cognac or a lush Pinot Noir or Petit Syrah.
The cigar is an ideal after-dinner smoke, and it will quickly climb the lists of the enthusiasts who prefer mild.


Kentucky Colonel
(no bourbon barrel)
  • Filler: Dominican Republic, Mexico
  • Binder: Dominican Republic
  • Wrapper: Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro

This gem is a full-bodied maduro with hints of leather and cream, packaged in a rich brown wrapper. The draw is wide open, and the burn is even from start to finish. The ash, dark and soft.
The Maduro consists of coffee and chocolate at the front, leading into an earthy, slightly leather finish. A cup of coffee, preferably "Irish" or splashed with Irish cream, brings out the flavors of this fine cigar.
This is a must have for Maduro lover.
