Shop Pappy Van Winkle Barrel Fermented Cigar – Short and fat, Robusto cigars are one of the most popular vitolas on the market and can easily be enjoyed in under an hour. And while the burn isn’t as long as a Churchill or Toro, the larger ring gauge ensures a smoke that’s every bit as flavorful and complex. Thanks to our unique barrel fermentation process, where bundles of Kentucky fire-cured tobacco are soaked in Pappy Van Winkle bourbon barrels for 12 to 18 months, Pappy & Company’s premium barrel-fermented cigars, which are hand-rolled by the artisans at Drew Estate in Estelí, Nicaragua, feature a unique bourbon-influenced flavor profile and aroma. The strength level of this sophisticated cigar collection, which comes in two additional vitolas, is “Medium Plus.” In other words, it can be enjoyed by both new smokers and longtime fans. Pappy & Company pro tip: Pair it with spicier spirits such as rye. WARNING: This product contains nicotine derived from tobacco. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.
