For the bolder smoker, we are excited to introduce our Limited Edition Barrel Fermented Gordo cigar. This special cigar is made for the smoker looking for an increase in luxury, presence, and time.

This is our largest Limited Edition vitola. Larger cigars deliver a greater volume of flavor and have a longer finish, compared to narrower cigars; they also create distinction from slimmer smokes to convey a stronger presence.

Over the years, the cigar industry has trended more toward larger cigars. Many manufacturers have released a 60 ring gauge smoke in their top tier lines, and Pappy Barrel Fermented with its unique flavor profile deserves a 60 ring gauge treatment.

This is the perfect cigar for the person playing 18 holes rather than 9. Someone who wants to wind down their Friday night dinner relaxing by the porch. This is the perfect cigar for the bolder smoker who enjoys having his presence known.

About the Barrel Fermented Blend:

The Pappy Van Winkle Barrel Fermented cigar is a 100% long-filler, premium cigar made totally by hand in very small batches at Drew Estate in Estelí, Nicaragua. This historic cigar features a barrel fermented, tapa-negra-style wrapper over a Mexican San Andres base wrapper, as well as aged Nicaraguan Filler tobaccos, personally selected by me. It is the perfect choice for pairing with any of the Van Winkle bourbon and rye products.

The strength level of the Pappy Van Winkle Barrel Fermented Cigar is "Medium Plus," which allows both new smokers and experienced aficionados to enjoy the blend. It's a well-rounded, sophisticated cigar with body and a hearty expression. At Drew Estate, we are known for passion and innovation, and making premium cigars is our “raison d’être” [reason to be]. The Pappy Van Winkle Barrel Fermented premium cigar is truly a showcase of our passion for cigar-making.

Comes in a lined, custom wooden box with 10 Gordo size (6 x 60) cigars. Please be advised the seal may be cut as they are randomly selected while going through customs.
