Dunbarton Release Holiday Y2022

Last year Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust shook up the cigar industry by releasing cigars with pipe tobacco in a collaboration with Cornell & Diehl. And this year there is another exclusive holiday blend, the Holyday Y2022.

“A tradition in Pipe Culture is for carvers to craft one-off pipe designs and for blenders to create special mixtures to smoke and celebrate the Holidays,” said Steve Saka, founder of Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust, in a press release. “In honour of this practice, it was always my intention to follow suit within our StillWell Star line of puros. This year’s release is a delightful aromatic puro with a carefully balanced selection of mild Cavendish Burley and choice Virginia tobaccos incorporated. Unlike the Aromatic No. 1 in the core line, this Holiday release does not feature a dulce cabeza, however the tobaccos themselves are wonderfully sweet to the tongue – the flavour and aroma are nothing short of exceptional. Personally, I find the smoking experience to be like sipping a cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows fireside.”

The Holiday Y2022 is a 6×52 Toro with an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper over a Mexican San Andrés cultivo tonto negro binder. The filler is made of Cavendish Burley and Virginia tobaccos. There are 2500 boxes of 13 cigars made at Fábrica de Tabacos Joya de Nicaragua S.A.
