 Southern Draw Manzanita Robusto (5.5×54) *NEW SPRING 2021 RELEASE* hand crafted at A.J. Fernandez in Nicaragua, the Manzanita is a unique and special cigar that Southern Draw is not disclosing the country of origins for the blend. Portions of proceeds help support the Native American Non-Profit, First Nation Development Institute, which is a huge reason we have gotten behind this brand. The Southern Draw Manzanita uses a combination of Pelo de Oro, Corojo 99 and Ligero long-fillers, a Habano binder and a gorgeous reddish Habano Hybrid wrapper that AJ Fernandez has personally hand selected for the blend. Flavor profile wise these are strong cigars with medium-full body notes of dark chocolate, leather, cedar, earth, peanuts, a creaminess with black pepper on the retro & a mineral like smoke texture. I recommend eating before enjoying. MSRP $12.99

 Macanudo Vintage 2010 Toro Grande (6.6×54) *NEW SUMMER 2021 RELEASE* rolled in the Dominican Republic with an 11-Year Aged U.S Connecticut Shade grown wrapper cultivated in the Connecticut River Valley during 2010, bound with a 3 to 5 year aged Honduran binder & long-filler blend of tobaccos including Honduran, Nicaraguan & Dominican Piloto Cubano ’94.
