As a kid, there was nothin' better than going to the annual town carnival and finally getting some of that dreamy, wispy, fluffy sugar on a stick...COTTON CANDY!

Because it was pure sugar...we were only allowed to have it once a year. (Thanks Mom!) It was a rare occasion that deserved to be savored for every second it lasted!

As an adult (and cigar maker)...Every once in a blue moon, we come across certain rare tobaccos that we refer to as "Cotton Candy" tobaccos. They're sweeter, lighter in body...and are loaded with flavors of vanilla, caramel, and cocoa!

COTTON CANDY XQ is our favorite of these rare (and now legendary) "cotton candy" tobaccos that we've collected over the years! We spent months and months perfecting the COTTON CANDY XQ blend...and finally created the ultimate dessert-style cigar experience!

I’m gonna say something that is gonna sound cocky—but this is probably the best Connecticut wrapped cigars I’ve ever smoked. (It’s certainly the best that we’ve ever made!)

The designation as an “XQ” blend means “eXtra Quality”. It’s our own internal tobacco warehouse designation denoting the most elite and most luxurious tobaccos! ANY cigar made with this EXTREMELY RARE tobacco in it…is gonna stand head and shoulders above the rest!

These tobacco are so rare that we could only make a micro-batch of 370 cigars! (We wanted this to be a full Ezra Zion release, but we just didn't have enough tobaccos to do it.)

COTTON CANDY XQ is a 6x52 classic toro. Wrapper is an ultra-sweet and silky 9-year-aged Connecticut leaf. (Just look at that picture!) Binder and filler tobaccos will remain a closely guarded secret.

Full-bodied. Medium-strength. Tobaccos are all aged b/n 5-12 years!
