There are many cigars we test or have blended to be a potential drop for the OGT Cigar Society subscription. What is the membership? It is designed to offer elevated experiences to the cigar smoker, seasoned and novice alike. It’s taking the spotlight and shining it on the talent and passion of the craft of this industry. Currently, many brands and cigar makers are bringing awesome blends of the highest quality or most complex cigars to date. The OGT Cigar Society focuses on those talents to bring to all our members across the states. That’s why, each month, all our members receive a five pack of a single blend, custom made or custom vitola, or even something very limited, to smoke, enjoy, and age. Aging cigars is a big part of the membership. When you age a cigar, it gives the tobacco time to marry together, blending flavors and smoothing out even more.
In January 2023, we released the first of our two-part RAW blending series with the OGT Stulac Project, a 6×46 Connecticut Broadleaf blended by Paul Stulac of Stulac Cigars. Following that drop was the Stallone custom cigar, the Silver Blaze, a Connecticut Broadleaf, and a wrapper using Medio Tiempo. Each cigar was made exclusively for our members of the Society, and each blend brought something unique from the talents of those who blended it.
March 2023 is bringing something extra special: Let me introduce you to ‘A Fistful of Smoke.’ Blended by AJ Fernandez, one of the premiere blenders of our time, this boasts two years of age. Its name well represents this Habano Robusto; this cigar embodies that coveted disruptive of ‘NICARAGUAN BANGER!!” *Que air horn* ‘A Fistful of Smoke’ offers notes of spice, sandalwood, toasted pie crust, umami, and an underlying sweetness. This is not a cigar to miss; unfortunately, this blend, due to two years of age on it, can’t be replicated. A finite amount exists and is crafted solely for Society. If you are not a member of the OGT subscription, I encourage you to SIGN UP HERE. Get a five pack of this AJ Fernandez Habano for just $43!! The Fistful of Smoke starts shipping at the end of the month.
