Back in 2009, Drew Estate released the first example of a brand new vitola, the Flying Pig, a 4 1/8 x 60 ring gauge perfecto with a pigtail cap. The Liga Privada No. 9 Flying Pig has always been one of Drew Estate’s more unique cigars with a larger bulbous center, two perfecto ends and a coiled pigtail on the cap. The dark espresso brown wrapper exhibits a small amount of oil and is toothy to the touch. The cigar aroma from the wrapper is a combination of creamy leather, baker’s spices, dark chocolate and cedar. 

After pulling off the pigtail on the cap and lighting up the foot, the Liga Privada No. 9 Flying Pig boast an aged cedar, dark cocoa, leather flavor with notes floral accents every puff or so. The overall profile is creamy with a slightly bitter espresso bean base that combines well with the rest of the notes of the cigar.  Overall strength is a solid medium almost from the start, and remaining consistent from that point.
