Selected by Cigar Aficionado as the 2015 #19 Cigar Of The Year – Rated 93


The King Is Dead The Last Payday is a 6 inch by 52 ring topredo. Caldwell Cigar Company has been creating amazing quality boutique cigars since 2014, and The King Is Dead is no exception. In fact The Last Payday Torpedo was recently ranked as the 19th best cigar of 2015 by Cigar Aficionado magazine. Known to utilize rare tobaccos in his blends, Robert Caldwell teamed up with Tabacalera Ventura to create this masterpiece. The filler blend as well as the wrapper of The King Is Dead is an extremely underused tobacco from the Dominican Republic, Negrito.  Usually found not to “play well” with other tobaccos, the masterminds at Ventura and Caldwell found a way to make it work, and boy did they ever.

 

Medium-to-full in body, The King Is Dead is a unique and complex smoking experience. Starting off with a blast of pepper reminiscent of a Don Pepin cigar, those notes are quickly subdued and replaced with a creamy and cocoa taste. As you work your way to the nub of this wonderful stick, Cedar notes begin to take a hold and mix with the creaminess from before.


The King Is Dead is a reminder on how cigars can still be a truly innovative product when put in the hands of an creative blender. The strength may be on the fuller side but it will never overpower you and can be paired with most drinks.  If you are looking for a unique new cigar to round out your humidor, The King Is Dead is the Perfect choice.
