Winston Churchill The Late Hour – Arriving Soon!

Anthony’s Cigar Emporium, a Davidoff Appointed Merchant, has leaned that the new Winston Churchill The Late Hour is arriving soon.

Davidoff has amped up its popular Winston Churchill blend by adding Nicaraguan Condega tobaccos that are fermented six months in single malt Sacotch whisky barrels. The new blend is called Winston Churchill The Late Hour. The Winston Churchill The Late Hour has a shiny and oily Habano Ecuador wrapper, and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos that are grown in the mineral rich volcanic soils of Condega and Estelì, adding spiciness and depth of character to the cigar.

The Nicaraguan Condega Visus tobaccos are aged in Scotch single malt whisky casks and give a mysterious sweetness and depth of flavor. The leaves are firmly pressed inside the casks. As the temperature in the closed casks rises, the tobacco enters a fermentation process. For the next six months the tobacco absorbs the aromas of the cask and whisky. The cask aging is responsible for the sweet tones and the full flavor.

The Nicaraguan (Estelì Visus and Condega Visus) and Dominican (San Vicente Mejorado Visus, Piloto Seco and Olor Visus) filler tobaccos, the dark Mexican San Andrés binder, combined with the dark chocolate wrapper, provide very complex and robust flavors in the Winston Churchill The Late Hour. The Late Hour’s aromas tantalize the palate with varying layers of black pepper, dark coffee, sweetness, old leather, wood and spiciness.

Davidoff Winston Churchill The Late Hour are packaged in 20 count black boxes.

Winston Churchill The Late Hour is offered in three formats.

Headley Grange Drumstick 2017 Limited Edition – Arriving this week!

Anthony’s Cigar Emporium just learned from Crowned Heads that it is getting a shipment of the very limited Headley Grange Drumstick 2017 Limited Edition.  In 2013 Crowned Heads released the Headley Grange Drumstick 2013 Limited Edition that was a 7 ½ x 38 Lancero with a pig-tail cap and was quickly sold out. That release was very limited to just 1,500 boxes of 10. Four years later, Crowned Heads announced the second release of the limited edition Headley Grange Drumstick 2017 but the production numbers have fallen to just 1,000 boxes of 10. Working closely with industry icon, Ernesto Perez-Carrillo, Jr., and Tabacalera La Alianza, S.A., the Headley Grange Drumstick 2017 blend has been re-created and packaged in the original 10-count box but the 2017 release has a black ribbon on the foot.

The dark and oily high-priming Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper is seamlessly applied to a core of Nicaraguan long-fillers hugged by a Nicaraguan binder in a variation on the original Headley Grange regular blend. From the first puff of the Headley Grange Drumstick 2017, the senses are met with a wave of nutty, spicy-sweet flavors. Coffee, baking spice, and leather join forces with creamy and earthy undertones. Because the lancero is a difficult shape, not only to roll, but to blend correctly, the entire batch of Drumsticks is being produced by one roller at E.P. Carrillo’s Tabacalera La Alianza S.A.
