“Here at OGT Cigars, we strive to bring new experiences in the cigar world delivered to your door. This includes incredible blends, exclusive projects, and ways for you to expand your palate through taste and experience. Beginning this year, we are setting out on a journey to take it to the next level. But to do that, I have to give you a bit of background. My brother and I have always had a fondness for medieval lore. This translates through the art he conjures from idea to paper. I am always searching for the next ‘best’ cigar experience. These two concepts merged, and I now give you our next project: The Order of the Chaveta” -Eric Drazin of Oak Glen Tobacconist.

A Chaveta is the iconic tobacco knife rollers used to cut wrapper and binder leaves in the rolling process.

During this year, OGT Cigars will release 5 collectible cigars that make up this very special order. The Order is a band of Knights that live through tobacco legend and art. Each Knight represents a unique, elevated blend, marked by their color and title. As an Order of Knights, they guard the history and traditions of cigar makers across time. They guard the sacred code of those worthy enough to hold the tobacco Chaveta. These five Knights (Blends) are represented by various cigar makers, creating the ultimate cigar-smoking experience. Emerald, Crimson, Onyx, Sapphire, and Gold all make up this Order of the Chaveta. All Knights once marched together, but they have been scattered across time and space. It is our quest to bring them back together!

These cigars will be released in various ways: the OGT Cigar Society, the OGT Variety Club, and very limited special-edition drops. If you are part of the OGT Cigar Society, you will have a distinct advantage in collecting them all, since a good number will be featured in the membership. Join us on this quest to summon the Order together and create one of the best tobacco sets of history! All those who complete the set will be eligible to win our Order of Chaveta prize!

The second arrives this month in the OGT Cigar Society. As I had mentioned, if you are a club member, you have a distinct advantage in securing each limited release at the best possible price! This month is the Crimson Knight, the Battle Cry! The Crimson Knight is the Order’s strength, the enforcer, the one who leads the charge. This cigar will wake you up, from the smoke on the palate to the power of the retrohale; its boldness is unique, intense, and complex! He lights the way in new experiences of full-flavored richness. The blend is a 2-year-aged African Cameroon, over a Nicaraguan binder, with Esteli and Jalapa fillers. The Crimson color is what comes to mind when you light this cigar up, vibrant and spicy! It is released in one size: a 6×50 Box Press Toro. This is a blend we have discovered once again from the Valicari Factory in Nicaragua.

The intensity of flavor and the boldness are so incredible, it’s unreal. Intense notes of cyan pepper and chipotle start this off! Further savory notes, cinnamon, light sweetness, and earth greet you, followed by more cinnamon, dried peppers, roasted nuts, cedar, and light sweetness from a coffee cake. The cigar’s age takes this blend to the next level.

The only way to obtain the Crimson Knight, the second in the order of five, is to join the OGT Cigar Society. This drop is among the more limited ones. Do not miss your chance; join the OGT Cigar Society to get this first one! Throughout the year, the remaining four will surface, but the Crimson Knight is set for this month! Lead your palate on an all-out assault of intense flavor with the Crimson Knight, The Battle Cry!
