With attention to detail, these cigars are rolled at Agroindustrias Laepe S.A. in Danli, Honduras, which also produces Camacho cigars. Robert Caldwell blended this one himself. The Blind Man’s Bluff Habano is the first of four in this amazing series. This well made medium to slightly full bodied bodied cigar is blended for a more seasoned smoker. Yielding a very thick, creamy smoke, with notes of coffee, cocoa, spices and caramel, this complexly blended edition is a winner.

The Crowned Heads Mil Días Marranitos 2022 Limited Edition is proof that changing the wrapper can create a whole new cigar.
While the internal blend of this 2022 cigar remains the same as the others in the line, the big difference is the wrapper. This special edition replaces the Ecuadorian habano leaf with a dark and smooth Ecuadorian Sumatra maduro. The result is a whole new dimension of flavor profiles. Think roasted coffee beans, creamy oak, barnyard, grass, toasted bread, cocoa nibs, and maple sweetness, along with some bits of black pepper and spice. In fact, the highly critical folks at Halfwheel declare it an extremely enjoyable flavor bomb of a blend.
Yet again, there’s no doubt this cigar is another top pick!
