Drew Estate announced that every Barn Smoker VIP attendee will receive a 12-count box of Liga Privada H99 Connecticut Corojo Flying Pig (60 x 100 mm – 3 9/10″) as part of their VIP ticket package. Additionally, Drew Diplomat Program retailers who register and attend any Barn Smoker can purchase as many as five 12-count H99 Flying Pig boxes to sell in their stores with a suggested retail price of $246 per box. This opportunity for Drew Diplomat Program retailers is limited to as many as 50 per Barn Smoker event.
“The beautiful hybrid wrapper that graces H99 Liga Privada, combined with the elements of our wildly popular Flying Pig vitola, makes this a true masterpiece,” says Drew Estate’s Founder and President, Jonathan Drew. “This new addition to the H99 and Flying Pigs squadron is extremely limited because of the rarity of our H99 capas and because just a few people at La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate in Estelí are qualified to roll the Piggies. H99 Flying Pig is a sexy beast indeed.”
Debuting at the VIP experience for the Pennsylvania Barn Smoker on July 15, the hybrid H99 Connecticut Corojo Flying Pigs’ capa is derived from the union of Stalk-Cut Habano and Corojo seeds. Combining the best elements of the Habano and Corojo seed varieties to produce an intensely sweet and elegant tobacco, the H99 Connecticut Corojo capa is grown exclusively for Drew Estate by one farmer in the Connecticut River Valley. The H99 capa contrasts beautifully with the robust and spicy Mexican San Andres Otapan Último Corte capote, while a tripa blend of well-aged Honduran, Nicaraguan, and Pennsylvania Green River One Sucker tobaccos complete the cigar’s complex and full-bodied character.
Liga Privada H99 Connecticut Corojo Flying Pigs will be available only to VIP experience ticket holders and select Drew Diplomat Program retailers who attend this year’s Barn Smokers. For more information, visit barnsmoker.com.
