It’s the holiday season, and what do I enjoy more than spending time with family, caroling around the tree, and expressing thanks for the savior’s birth? All of the above with a good cigar in hand, or two or three. Leave it to the guys at the LCA to bring something special to the occasion. Introducing another banger of a Nicaraguan cigar from AJ Fernadez, the LCA plus Red Ryder. This is December’s accompaniment with the soon-to-be-announced LCA drop. The Red Ryder is a beautifully crafted 5×50 Robusto sporting a Sumatra wrapper. But before I pontificate on this blend, I will let the fellas with Privada explain better than I can:
“You’ll shoot your eye out! We all know the movie. The poor kid. The classic film is played on television non-stop every Christmas Day, and it just wouldn’t feel like Christmas without it. It turns out that the famous Red Ryder BB Gun was inspired by a comic strip Red Ryder that ran from 1938 through 1965. We found the original comics and did our best to capture the style. This is a holiday experience we have wanted to offer for many years but needed time to get the art right. The 5×50 Robusto rolled at Tabacalera Annex in Nicaragua features an Indonesian Sumatra wrapper, Nicaraguan Criollo binder, and Nicaraguan fillers. Happy Holidays from your friends in cigar collecting at the Limited Cigar Association.”
I am especially excited about this month’s LCA plus drop; we all know how busy the holidays get. The rush from moving from one activity to the next, wanting to sneak in a stick where we can. This 5×50 Robusto is a perfect, festive coffee pairing stick with an amazing flavor to start your day. The size isn’t too big, and the Sumatra wrapper presents an amazing flavor that causes this cigar to pop. Pick up the limited Red Ryder LCA Plus drop and kick off the holidays right! Besides, it’s AJ Fernandez.
