HOF, which stands for Hall of Fame, is the latest release in the Ortiz Series and honors Ortiz’s induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2022. HOF by David Ortiz features a Mexican San Andres wrapper, a sweet Indonesian binder, and a filler blend as powerful as Ortiz’s career. 

With controlled amounts of exotic Sumatran tobacco spices sitting alongside some black pepper, things start off a bit intense but quickly mellow out. Freshly oiled baseball glove leather is also prominent on the tongue, while retrohales favor sweetened chai tea with milk, candied dates, and dark fruits sitting alongside staves of cedar.
