Kentucky Fire Cured Swamp Thang Robusto 5" * 54

Like some pre-historic creature that crawled out of a backwoods bog, the Kentucky Fire Cured Swamp Thang Robusto has come to claim your palate. The medium-strength “Thang” starts off with an eye-catching green-hued Dominican Candela wrapper that transitions to a dark, oily Mexican San Andres wrapper. This contrasting duo covers a Nicaraguan binder and filler. The Swamp Thang’s tobacco has been dried using the centuries old Kentucky Fire-Cured method that gives it a distinctive hickory aroma and flavor that melds well with the tobacco’s earthy and peppery notes, and an appetizing barbecue sweetness. Handmade at the La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate factory in Nicaragua, the Kentucky Fire Cured Swamp Thang is best tamed with your favorite scotch.

• Cigar Wrapper
  Dominican Candela

  The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.

  Mexican San Andres Maduro

  The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
  Mexican tobacco is very dark and the best leaves can be used as maduro wrappers. San Andres Maduro is a thick, medium bodied dark leaf, also called San Andres Morron. Like Connecticut Broadleaf, San Andres Maduro is stalk cut and used for binder and wrapper.
