Jacobs Ladder Brimstone
The first new release for Southern Draw at IPCPR 2019 will be the Jacobs Ladder Brimstone. This makes the fifth size in the Jacobs Ladder lineup in a 6″ x 56 perfecto. This new viotla will sell for $11.99 and come in boxes of 20 along with 20-count refills.
The name Brimstone refers to the Bibles’ passages about fiery torment. The blend itself uses the same combination of Pennsylvania Broadleaf USA wrapper, Maduro USA binder, and three ligeros from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic as the rest of the line. Like the rest of Southern Draws cigars, this is rolled at Tabacalera A.J. Fernandez Cigars de Nicaragua. Production is limited to 75,000 cigars for 2019 with equal amounts being made in July, September and November.
Jacobs Ladder is the popular cigar blend named in part for Ethan Jacob, the son of Founders, Robert & Sharon Holt. A limited number of samples of the new 6.0×56 perfecto will ideally be available from the hands of Ethan Jacob who has plans to share this line extension with media members and current valued retailer partners of Southern Draw Cigars. The unveiling of the Jacobs Ladder – Brimstone (the name was shortened to fit on the secondary bands and boxes) is scheduled for June 30, 11 a.m. in Booth #3061. The company is keeping images of the new releases under wraps to further benefit those that attend IPCPR.
*Further new lines for Southern Draw will be added to this article as we receive them. We are expecting about 4 more.
