Liga Privada H99 is the first regular-production blend added to Drew Estate's Liga Privada line since 2009, unveiled in 2018 as the Liga family marked its tenth anniversary. The "H" stands for Hybrid — a dark, stalk-cut, air-cured Corojo-seed capa born of a marriage between Habano and Corojo seed, grown in the heart of the Connecticut River Valley exclusively for Drew Estate by a single farmer, which keeps the line scarce and elusive. Handcrafted at La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate in Esteli, Nicaragua. Box count: 24 cigars.
A hybrid Corojo-seed wrapper grown in the Connecticut River Valley — stalk-cut and extra-fermented until dark and oily — over a Mexican San Andres Otapan Negro Ultimo Corte binder and a long-filler core of Nicaraguan, Honduran and Pennsylvania leaf. Toro format, 6 x 52, handmade at La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate in Esteli, Nicaragua. Box count: 24 cigars.
The H99 Toro opens dark and rustic, with classic wood, black pepper and baker's spice framing a cherry-cream sweetness. Through the middle it turns savory and meaty as coffee and espresso move forward alongside oak, leather and a chocolatey sweetness. A dry texture and a distinctly peppery retrohale keep the full-bodied intensity front and center down to the nub.
Alcoholic: Bourbon or aged rum. Non-Alcoholic: Dark roast coffee.
