Cigar Aficionado's 93-rated #20 Cigar of 2020!
When you're experimenting, you might at first blush call a particular attempt a failure and toss it aside, especially if you're looking for something with different qualities. But, on another day, you may revisit the earlier experiment and notice that, under fresh conditions, it's actually pretty nice in its own right.
That's what happened with the Four Kicks Capa Especial Robusto cigar.
The Crowned Heads team was collaborating with E.P. Carrillo in the early 2010s, blending up cigars that would become the company's first releases. Among them was the original Four Kicks blend (inspired by a Kings of Leon song). Now the blend receives an update and right out of the gate, we're smoking something especial.
The long-filler blend includes both Dominican and Nicaraguan tobacco, is rolled into a Nicaraguan binder, and features an interesting and rich Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper. Once again, the Crowned Heads company has hit the right note, recrafting a blend that combines a wealth of flavor, including leather, hazelnuts, earth, and even orange zest.
Light it up and find out for yourself why one of the hottest boutique blenders continues to be Crowned Heads. They're right on the money and we're starting to get excited for whatever comes off their blending table.
