Kentucky Fire Cured Sweets

Kentucky Fire Cured Sweets features the same rustic packaging as its original counterpart, including paper-wrapped bundles and plain brown bands which appear to allude to the labels of prohibition era whiskey bottles. The glistening wrapper leaf displays all the gorgeous characteristics to be expected from premium San Andres tobacco, including a silky smooth texture and an extensive road map of rustic veins. The draw is easy and smooth, providing a monsoon of dense blue smoke with each puff. As for the flavor profile of the cigar, KFC Sweets shares the bouquet of bold fire cured characteristics with its predecessor. The overall note is halfway between a camp fire and a Sunday barbecue. There is plenty of spice from the Nicaraguan leaves, along with a faint earthiness looming in the background from start to finish. Strong blasts of hickory blast the palate as well. Where KFC Sweets truly shines, however, is the added sweetness from the tip. Though difficult to describe, a desperate attempt at pointing out the additional flavor would lead one to name maple bacon and bourbon. Whatever Jonathan Drew was going for, it goes just right with this blend. First there's the smoky fire cured flavor, then comes the sweet finish on the tip of the tongue. As for strength, KFC Sweets is a rock-solid medium-bodied cigar.

Like the original Kentucky Fire Cured blend, KFC Sweets isn't your typical cigar. It doesn't taste like a standard cigar, yet it isn't infused like many of Drew Estate's other blends. At the end of the day, it just tastes different, and as anyone who has enjoyed fire cured tobacco will agree, it can be tough to describe that difference. As unique as it may be, KFC Sweets is still a fine cigar, and like any other stick coming out of the Drew Estate factory it is well made, consistent, and most definitely at the ultra-premium level. Medium-bodied yet heavy on flavor, KFC Sweets is a great cigar for anyone. Whether beginner or connoisseur, it will sure be an eye opener at the least. Due to the nature of this stick, it pairs exceptionally well with bourbon. (After all, anything with Kentucky in the name pairs well with bourbon, right?) KFC Sweets is an amazing stick, and doubtless a fantastic follow up to the original Kentucky Fire Cured and KFC Swamp Thang, both of which anyone who hasn't already tried should definitely look into. Whether your cigar routine has seemed a bit boring lately or you just want something new and different, Kentucky Fire Cured Sweets by Drew Estate is calling your name!
