CROWN HEAD LA IMPERIOSA DUKE – ROBUSTO 5.5 x 44

Description

Originally, a Cuban brand from the early 1900’s, La Imperiosa translates to ‘the imperative,’ or, “that which is absolutely necessary or required.” The La Imperiosa artwork and band were inspired by the original Cuban vista and band of years gone by.
The blend for this cigar originally appeared as the incredibly popular Las Calaveras Edición Limitada 2014. All but impossible to find these days, Crowned Heads listened to the cries for more and resurrected the exact same blend in a regular production cigar.

La Imperiosa. Hailing from the My Father factory in Nicaragua, this hearty blend comes lovingly dressed in an oily and dark Ecuadoran Habano Oscuro wrapper concealing a choice blend of Nicaraguan long-fillers.

The cigar opens big with a burst of red pepper, before easing off the throttle and settling onto the palate with dense and multi-layered notes of dark fruit, earth, and charred meat. The flavor is at once dense and approachable, with a massively-brooding muscular structure.
