The small-batch masters at Crowned Heads follow up their previous Jericho Hill release with a new addition, Juarez, a medium to full-bodied Nicaraguan handmade. An oily San Andrés wrapper leaf embraces a hearty core of Dominican and Nicaraguan long-fillers tucked inside an Ecuador Sumatra binder. A meaty profile of wood, leather, and peppers emanates with a smoky campfire aroma before a chewy, earthy finish sets in. Like Jericho Hill, Juarez is named for lyrics in the classic Johnny Cash song, “Cocaine Blues.” Clear out some space in your coolerdor for top-notch boutiques from Crowned Heads.
