The Crowned Heads Las Calaveras Edición Limitada 2020 LC56 was unfortunately a miss for me. I would go as far as to say it is my least favorite Las Calaveras. The profile suffered from lack of complexities and depth of flavors. I'll have to pass on this year and look forward to next year's release.
Crowned Heads is proud to announce the first limited edition release under the highly sought after Mil Días brand, i.e., Mil Días Mareva EL XX (2020). The cigar utilizes the original Mil Días blend, and is being crafted in the traditional Cuban Mareva vitola (5 1/8" x 42). Production will be limited to a total of 1,000 {30-count) cabinet style boxes.
Crowned Heads has announced the first regular production brand extension to their popular Juarez cigar line. The 5 1/2" x 48 parejo will be called 'Chihuahua,' not as a reference to the small dog breed, but rather, to the fact that Juarez is one of the 67 municipalities of the state of Chihuahua, in northern Mexico.
Mil Días translates to ‘one-thousand days,’ and is a reference to the three-year window of time it required to bring the project from intention to fruition, and ultimately, to completion. The project began in the Summer of 2017 when Don Eradio Pichardo and Luciano Meirelles presented blend samples to Jon Huber of Crowned Heads at the IPCPR Trade Show.
Crowned Heads Cigars is set to release Four Kicks- No. 7 an exclusive release for Casa de Montecristo. The cigars will only be available at Casa de Montecristo’s 28 US retail locations and is set to release on June 24,2020.

The Crowned Heads La Coalición Gordito started well, and if the profile from the first third had maintained itself throughout, we'd be talking about a really good cigar. As it sits, it's still a fairly good offering although the price is a bit high. I would smoke this again, but it's not something that's high on my list to revisit.
Under the new strategic alliance, the ACE Prime range of cigars will be distributed exclusively by Crowned Heads.
