The verdict

The Crowned Heads Jericho Hill LBV is a richer, medium-to-full smoke from Crowned Heads's Jericho Hill line. It's a Nicaragua (New World) lonsdale wrapped in Mexican San Andres at 6.5 in × 46.

On the palate, expect dark cocoa, black pepper, and coffee, leaning sweet. Plan on roughly 65 minutes from light to nub.

It pairs naturally with coffee and bourbon. If you're newer to cigars, work up to this one rather than starting here.

LBV is the long, lean format in the Crowned Heads Jericho Hill family — a 6 1/2 x 46 that stretches the brand's dark, Johnny Cash-inspired blend into a more leisurely smoke. Like every Jericho Hill, it's box-pressed under a Mexican San Andres wrapper and rolled at the My Father factory in Estelí, Nicaragua.

What it tastes like

The longer, thinner shape smooths the San Andres out a little, letting its flavors unfold gradually. Expect dark cocoa, black pepper, coffee, and cedar over a leathery, earthy base, with the classic San Andres sweetness peeking through. It's medium-full but more measured and refined than the punchy shorter vitolas — a cigar built for taking your time.

Who it's for

The Lonsdale shape rewards experienced smokers who like an hour-plus of slow, flavorful smoking. Pair it with coffee or bourbon and don't rush it.
