The Lineup
One Lamp — Connecticut
"One if by land."
The first lantern in the Old North Church window the night of April 18, 1775. The signal that the British were marching by land. One Lamp is where the line starts. The lighter cigar, but built with the same intent as the rest of the lineup. The cigar you light when you want the cigar, not the conversation about the cigar.
A Connecticut Ecuador wrapper over a Criollo binder and a three-priming Nicaraguan filler from Estelí, Jalapa, and Condega. Mild to medium, with a clean burn and a draw that holds up across a slow smoke. Pairs with morning coffee, afternoon porches, and any moment where you want flavor without weight.
