The Old Powder Keg line of cigars from Battleground Cigars are made in the Dominican Republic. This cigar consists of a blend of Central American long leaf fillers, bound together with a locally grown Connecticut Broadleaf binder and a Maduro Corojo wrapper.
This cigar is has a dark and toothy appearance to match its full bodied flavor. Flavors noted through this cigar are Spice, Pepper, and leather with strong taste and aroma of natural tobacco from the Broadleaf, as well as some distant notes of cedar and citrus. This cigar is best enjoyed on full stomach, as it has been consistently noted to be a very full flavored cigar by multiple sources.
The Old Powder Keg line of cigars are inspired by Colonel Augustus Hazard who owned and operated the fabled HAZARD GUN POWDER COMPANY, in the town these cigars call home in over 150 years ago. Legend is this area produced 40% of the gun powder used during the Civil War. The powder works blew up long ago, only the village of Hazardville remains.
