Four iterations of ADVentura cigars ago, the brand’s fictional main characters set off for a voyage around the world via an award-winning blend called Explorer. Now, the crew is back from a long, old-world exploration that has exposed them to countless cultures, continents and tobaccos from far and wide; the discovery of flavors unimaginable just a short time ago.
The Royal Return is divided into two releases: King’s Gold and Queen’s Pearls. These celebrated lines landed to massive praise from the cigar smoking world and earned 90-plus ratings from many high-profile publications. Queen’s Pearls won the Cigar of the Year award from the industry insider publication Halfwheel. Both of the cigars satisfy smokers from either end of the spectrum, with King’s Gold catering to more of the medium-bodied smokers and Queen’s Pearls more ideally suited for those who love a classic mellow-medium Connecticut style cigar...with an incredible upscale twist.
The tobacco lineup for King’s Gold is a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper around Mexican San Andres binder and wrapper from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and the United States. The flavor profile is one of dried fruit, baked goods, cream, coffee and a mild earthy note.
Queen’s Pearls, on the other hand, is a blend of Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper and binder over fillers sourced from Dominican Republic, Ecuador and Nicaragua.
As with all ADVentura releases, the tobacco used for this project underwent a careful aging process that saw the tobacco matured for five years before an additional five month aging process. Additionally, the Connecticut wrappers on this cigar were subject to a special fermentation process that helps the cigar stay light on the palate, allows for flavors to linger longer, creating a more complete, almost meal-like sensation upon lighting up.
Delivered to shoppers in a box that looks the part, like it was embargoed under the hull of the infamous explorers’ ship, this incredible line is available at Cigars.com for a price you won’t believe. Sample both to uncover the full spectrum of ADVentura flavors and enjoy the best this artisanal brand has to offer.
