About This Cigar

The original The King Is Dead cigar is a Dominican puro hand-rolled at William Ventura's El Maestro factory. This version, though, sees Robert Caldwell collaborate with AJ Fernandez. They've already partnered before to release The T. cigar, and The King Is Dead by AJ Fernandez is a complete reimagining of the original blend: It entirely comprises Nicaraguan tobaccos from AJ's esteemed farms, showcasing a rich Maduro wrapper for an utterly unique variation on Caldwell's popular core line.

4.5/5 Construction: These came very moist upon arrival with some wet patches due to the humidity pouches. Thankfully, I nursed them down gradually to a nice RH. I also dry-boxed a day before smoking. Wrapper a little toothy with a few stand out veins. Great weight and feel to this stick. Draw on the tighter side, which I now expect from Caldwell, but not in a bad way. Body: ⅓ is herby & spicy with lots of graham cracker aroma. I also got hints of dried fruit & citrus. ⅔ was my favourite. A natural sweetness dominates and brings through a distinct creaminess! Final third brings spice and pepper with small bits of savouriness. The nic hit was surprisingly mellow....Read More
