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.
The Lost Angel 2020 is an exclusive release for TAA that is limited to 1,000 (20-count) boxes. The 6” x 52 Cigar is comprised of 100% Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos, and is finished with an Ecuadorian (Sumatra) wrapper.
Manufactured at La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate in Esteli, Nicaragua, the Paniolo 2020 is a 5 3/4 x 46 Corona Gorda parejo cigar. Once again, the blend features a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, a Mexican (San Andres) binder, and a combination of filler tobaccos from Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, and Brazil.
The Headley Grange Chamuco incorporates the original Headley Grange blend, and is finished with a Mexican (San Andres) maduro wrapper. The stout 5 1/2" x 54 cigar is box-pressed, and like the Black Lab 2018, features a closed foot which spotlights the natural sweet nature of the Mexican wrapper upon initial ignition.
Today Drew Estate and Crowned Heads announce the nationwide shipping of their collaborative release “La Coalicion”, manufactured by La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate and sold through Crowned Heads.
CHC Reserve XVIII Full Court Press features the original CHC Reserve XVIII blend in a 5 7/8" x 52 box-pressed vitola. The resulting smoking experience is a rich yet accessible medium bodied expression that exudes a multi-layered flavor profile with hallmark balance.
Overall, the profile of the Shore Thing Exclusive by Crowned Heads was average, even with its uniqueness. The price point is quite high, but for a store exclusive, I can understand some reasoning to it, I just don't feel the experience earns it. If you're a Crowned Heads fan and have a chance to grab one, you should go for it, but it won't drive me to seek more out.
