Cigar News: Drew Estate Announces Annual Flying Pig Release

Drew Estate announced today that their annual production of Flying Pig vitolas will be shipping in May. The cigars included in the release are the Liga Privada No. 9 and T52, Undercrown Maduro, Shade and Sun Grown, and Kentucky Fire Cured. The Flying Pig is one of the most popular vitolas in the company’s portfolio. It measures 100mm x 60 and it is based on a photograph of an 1895 cigar salesman’s size selection case. It is one of the most difficult vitolas to roll because of the size and pig-tail, so it requires specialized buncheros and rolleras at La Gran Fabrica in Esteli, Nicaragua.
