Crowned Heads Las Calaveras Edicion Limitada 2016 
Made by: My Father for Crowned Heads
Country of Manufacture: Esteli, Nicaragua
Wrapper: Grade A Dark Connecticut Broadleaf

Beginning with the Edicion Limitada 2014, Las Calaveras is an annual release that is a respectful homage to Day of the Dead celebrations to honor those who have passed away in the year before and is intended to be a celebration of their lives and remembrances, rather than a mourning or a symbol of sadness and death. With each year’s annual limited release, the blend and presentation of Las Calaveras will be altered.

The Las Calaveras EL 2016 features a Grade A Dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, different from the 2014 Ecuador Habano Oscuro wrapper and the 2015 Habano Rosado.  The filler and binder are still a very strong all-Nicaraguan blend. Crowned Heads described the Las Calaveras EL 2016 as “big, bold, and muscular with an abundance of white pepper, complimented by a subtle molasses-like sweetness. Crowned Heads has switched up the sizes again for the Las Calaveras EL 2016; the LC46 is a bit longer, LC50 is the same, and now there’s a new LC54 wich measures 5 1/2″ x 54 (Robusto Extra).

A total of 4,500 boxes of Las Calaveras EL 2016 were produced, and, like the previous years’ ELs, the Las Calaveras EL 2016 is made at the My Father factory in Esteli, Nicaragua.  Crowned Heads is adding a special vitola to its Las Calaveras 4-Cigar Sampler that includes a LC46, LC50, LC54 and a sampler-exclusive 6 1/8” x 52 Piramide

The Las Calaveras EL 2016 Lineup from Jon Huber’s twitter.

Las Calaveras is packaged in 24-count boxes, each containing 3 rows of 8 cigars. The 3 rows represent life’s cycle of a beginning, middle, and end. In biblical terms, the number ‘8’ signifies new beginnings, and in mathematical terms an ‘8’ laid on its side symbolizes “infinity,” as in eternal life.
