One of the most desired cigars in our portfolio, The Flying Pig, is presented in a 3 15/16 x 60 ring gauge vitola. A favorite amongst cigar enthusiasts worldwide, its unique shape is based on a photograph of an 1895 cigar salesman’s case. Due to its size and signature pigtail, it is one of the most complicated cigars to manufacture, requiring specialized training.
The Barrel Fermented Flying Pig features the same blend as our other Barrel Fermented cigars, so for tasting notes, think hickory, charcoal, and fresh earth. You can expect a smoother smoking experience with the Flying Pig due to the larger ring gauge. While shorter in length, it is a long smoking experience. Enthusiasts can easily expect this cigar to last an hour and a half.
For those new to the collection, our Pappy Van Winkle Barrel Fermented cigars bring together bourbon heritage and thoughtful craftsmanship. Hand-rolled at La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate in Estelí, Nicaragua, each cigar features Kentucky fire-cured and Nicaraguan filler, an Indonesian binder, and a distinctive Tapa Negra-style Kentucky fire-cured and barrel-fermented wrapper over an Indonesian cover leaf. What sets these cigars apart begins in Saint James Parish, Louisiana, where Kentucky fire-cured tobacco undergoes pressure fermentation in retired Pappy Van Winkle bourbon barrels using the traditional Perique process. The result is a medium-bodied smoke with notes of charred oak, Scotch-like peatiness, and roasted coffee, made to enjoy alongside a favorite pour.
The Flying Pig is a limited release smoke that is part of our Barrel Fermented Pappy Van Winkle cigar collection. Available in limited numbers and sold exclusively at pappyco.com.
