Crowned Heads Le Patissier No. 54 Maduro

Le Patissier is a cigar line from Crowned Heads Cigars that was launched in 2021. The name means "the pastry chef" in French and is intended to reflect the inspiration behind the cigar line. The initial connection between French cuisine and cigars was created with the cigars of Le Carême. The idea behind this cigar series was to pay homage to the pioneer while also highlighting that these cigars offer chocolatey flavors.

A Culinary Cigar Journey
The blend features a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, a Nicaraguan binder from Jalapa, and filler tobaccos from Costa Rica and Nicaragua, providing an interesting and unusual flavor profile. Characteristic notes include earthy and nutty flavors, while the chocolate notes, despite the brand's name, are not overly dominant.

The Sweet Temptation of Le Patissier Cigars
The Crowned Heads cigar brand was founded in 2011 by Jon Huber and Mike Conder, who previously worked for CAO Cigars. The brand's name was inspired by a poem by T. S. Eliot, which conveys the idea that everyone is a kind of king in their own life. Crowned Heads has built an excellent reputation for creative and engaging blends that are often inspired by art, music, and pop culture. Some of the most well-known cigars from Crowned Heads include Four Kicks, Juarez, Luminosas, and Mil Dias.
