Drew Estate today announced the shipment of their seasonal Flying Pig vitola. The lines receiving shipments are Liga Privada No. 9 and T52, Undercrown Maduro, Shade and Sun Grown, and Kentucky Fire Cured. The Flying Pig vitola is a very popular vitola made famous by Drew Estate featuring a 100mm x 60 ring gauge and signature pigtail cap.
