[Reasons and Background of the Collaboration: An Encrypted Kiss from Virtual to Reality]
The creation of this cigar truly has a "serendipitous" quality that resonates with our times; it represents a genuine bridging of the traditional world of fine cigars and the digital world of Web 3.0.
- Originating from a digital community: This collaboration was spearheaded by an NFT collector community called "Block Chain Smokers." The group's members are mostly seasoned players in the cryptocurrency space, as well as avid connoisseurs of fine cigars. Tired of mass-produced items, they yearned for a bespoke cigar that represented the pioneering spirit of digital technology and reached the highest standards of quality.
- Jeremy Casdagli's openness: While such collaborations often fall short of reality, Jeremy Casdagli showed great interest. He discovered the digital community's high level of enthusiasm and expertise in cigar blending, so he decided to go beyond simple rebranding and instead open up the brand's top-tier IGM factory resources, adopting the high-specification blending logic of the flagship Cypher 3311 series (i.e., the complex four-country filler formula).
- A collision of visuals and culture: Its cigarette label design breaks away from Casdagli's traditional aristocratic heraldic style, incorporating pixelated and futuristic digital elements. It symbolizes a sense of identity: in this era of fluctuations and virtual codes, only the premium tobacco experience of burning at your fingertips is real, timeless, and irreplaceable (IRL - In Real Life).
[Taste Profile: A Broad Dimension of Sensory Connection]
Initially, thanks to the excellent heat dissipation provided by the 54 ring gauge, the smoke is extremely cool and smooth upon ignition. The double Ecuadorian tobacco releases an alluring aroma of cream, cedarwood, and a hint of white truffle. The smoke output is enormous, as if opening up a wide range of flavor channels in the mouth. Mid-section: As the burn progresses into the core region, the power of Pennsylvania broadleaf tobacco and the exotic fruitiness of Peruvian tobacco begin to "unravel." A deep, complex sweetness reminiscent of molasses, leather, and dried dates emerges. This blend is exceptionally robust in the Wide Churchill specification, exhibiting a medium-to-rich and highly penetrating depth. Finish: As we move into the final stages, the flavor profile shifts to deep dark chocolate, espresso, and a warm, roasted oak note. Thanks to the use of filler blades aged for an average of over 5 years, the smoke maintains remarkable purity even in the heat-concentrating zone of the later stages of combustion, leaving a deep, mineral-rich, and extremely long-lasting woody finish.
