War Witch Corona by Black Star Line Cigars

Who is Black Star Line Cigars? What is the War Witch Connecticut? Where do Black Star Line Cigars acquire their tobacco? Hopefully, if any of these questions arose in your mind, this will answer them.

For many years, the owner and blender of Black Star Line cigars Adetola Wimberly-Bey or ‘Aric’ worked as a firefighter in Chicago. Behind the scenes, Aric had a growing appreciation for cigars and a love for the tobacco leaf. After great consideration, Aric teamed up with his life-long friend Derrick Bell and they began to pursue a career in the cigar industry. After a year of networking, Jonathan Drew of Drew Estate Cigars began to guild them through the process of owning a cigar company. Later, Aric and Derek were able to work with El Titan De Bronze cigar factory which manufactures for companies like Drew Estate Cigars, La Palina, Warped Cigars, Cohiba Cigars, and more.

Fast forward later and Black Star Line also teamed up with a favorite here at OGT, Aganorsa Leaf Cigars. As some know, Aganorsa Leaf can do amazing things with Corojo 99 and Criollo 98 tobacco, but that is not all! They also have a wonderful interpretation of the Connecticut shade leaf. Hence, War Witch Corona was born. using Aganorsa tobacco, Aric blended his coffee pairing baby, both in a Robusto and Corona sizes. Corona cigars are usually around 6×46 like the War Witch, but the finishing touch is box pressing the cigar. The term ‘not your grandfather’s Connecticut’ definitely applies to this cigar, but that doesn’t mean it’s bitter or off-putting.

The War Witch Corona is a mild, edging to medium strength cigar with a full range of amazing flavors. When you light it up there are notes of nuttiness, coffee bean, cream, cedar, and touches white pepper. This cigar can stand up to a wide range of beverage pairings, however, it seems to glow best with coffee, creamer added or not. This cigar stands on its own as a fantastic rich and smooth Connecticut, but also fits perfectly in the Black Star Line Cigar portfolio, next to the Dark War Witch Corojo and Lalibela San Andres Maduro.
