Crowned Pig of Drew Estate.
Undercrown was created at the rolling tables by Drew Estate's torcedores — not in a board room or meeting. The story goes as such: Drew Estate allows their rollers to smoke any of the cigars in production, and the rollers loved the original Liga Privada No. 9 blend so much that it was all they ever smoked. While most would consider that a ringing endorsement, Drew Estate was worried about the availability of the tobaccos. The primings used for the No. 9 are so rare and limited that they had to remove Liga Privada No. 9 from the list of cigars the rollers are allowed to smoke. The rollers then improvised and used different primings of the same tobacco to make a new blend they could enjoy in the factory every day. This new blend impressed the Drew Estate team so much that they rolled it out to the market, and thus, Liga Privada Undercrown was born.
Capturing a similar character and profile as the No. 9 blend it's based on, Undercrown is an exceptional cigar in its own right. Featuring a dark, San Andrés wrapper, a US Connecticut 'T52' Stalk-Cut binder, and a potent combo of Brazilian Mata Fina & Nicaraguan long-fillers, this medium to full-bodied blend offers rich, creamy flavors — equal parts sweet as it is savory with a long, rewarding finish. The blend develops nicely with flavors of espresso and hints of cashews. . The Flying Pig vitola is the most coveted line extension yet, with the long-filler leaves adding more spice and earth to your smoking experience thanks to this cigar's unique dimensions.
