About this cigar
Crowned Heads has built its reputation on thoughtful, limited releases that reward the serious collector. Las Calaveras is one of those rare annual offerings, arriving each fall with a blend that shifts subtly year to year. The 2022 iteration, in the approachable 46-ring gauge, brings together Nicaraguan and Dominican long-fillers beneath an aged Ecuadorian Habano wrapper that's taken on a brick-brown patina. Expect a medium-full body with notes of cedar, black pepper, and dark chocolate, with the wrapper contributing a refined sweetness that prevents any harshness. This is a cigar built for contemplation rather than speed. The draw is consistently generous, the burn holds true, and the complexity unfolds across the full length. It's equally at home in a lounge setting as it is in a retail humidor where knowledgeable customers know to ask for the Crowned Heads section. For your clientele, Las Calaveras offers something beyond commodity cigars: a piece of the brand's calendar-marked mystique, limited to a single year, impossible to reorder.
