Rare as can be, and featuring higher primings off the tobacco plant, as well as a fair deal more age, the 10th Anniversary version of Pepper Cream Soda by Caldwell Cigar Co. is one of those obscure stogies that collectors and boutique blend snobs seek out. 

Since the ingredients are the exact same as the regular version of Pepper Cream Soda, one can expect an oily, Ecuador-born arapiraca wrapper, a piloto binder, and then more of the same piloto strain inside, along with some Cuban-seed Havana Vuelta Abajo (HVA) and a pinch of habano.

Additional exposure to sunlight tends to not only make higher primings off a tobacco plant more intense, but more resinous and oily as well, so those looking for a more aromatic, deeper layered version of the normal blend need look no further.

This Dominican puro is a blend that is fit for a king, may they be living or deceased. With notes of cedar, earth, maple syrup, earth and spice, this flavor-packed blend is one that delivers on a top-tier level.  As one of Caldwell's earliest releases, and most celebrated, The King is Dead remains one of those medium-powered cigars that never lost its momentum. 

Featuring an ultra-rare "negrito" wrapper, a corojo binder, and then corojo ligero, HVA 20/20, and a pinch more negrito, this smooth sailing torpedo delivers some truly unique flavors and aromas. No wonder it made the Top 25 at Cigar Aficionado when it first launched!

The Caldwell Lost and Found "Just the Tip" cigar is made in the Dominican Republic at Tabacalera William Ventura factory. Rolled using a zesty Habano wrapper over a Sumatran binder and filled with a balanced mix of Dominican tobaccos, the result is a medium smoke with notes of oak, sun-grown leaf, cream, and graham cracker. 

Long Live The Queen is a truly outstanding blend featuring a Cameroon wrapper out of Africa, and makes for a wild contrast to Long Live The King. This cigar is medium-full in flavor with a good amount of spice, while still remaining refined and balanced. Made in the Dominican Republic, Long Live the Queen is rolled at the El Maestro factory, a smaller factory owned by William Ventura. It’s a four-country blend consisting of a reddish-brown Cameroon cover leaf, a Sumatran binder grown in Indonesia and a mix of Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers.

A staple of the Caldwell collection, the corojo version of Long Live the King is all red leaf on the outside, as well as on the binder, followed by a dash more corojo in the filler, but this time courtesy of the ligero priming off the upper portions of the tobacco plant. Then, just for those craving even more flavor and intensity, comes an additional smack of ligero habano leaf straight from Nicaragua, and then a touch of Pelo de Oro out of Peru in the filler. Translated to "Hair of Gold," the latter of these is an heirloom Cuban-seed tobacco varietal that is best known for its sweet, pungent aromatics and fruity tropical flavors.

Continuously corojo throughout, but a bit more milky and nutty than just tea, citrus, and spice at first, this blend threads the needle with ease. Traditional red leaf tobacco tastes on the outside, and a far more creamy, nougat and vanilla-filled center underneath, every pull, retrohale, exhale, and aftertaste within this cigar is pure smoking bliss. 

As the name implies, this blend promises a smooth, creamy smoking experience from start to finish. Featuring a Dominican binder and filler combo that has been enclosed inside a rare Arapiraca Claro wrapper out of Peru, this unique blend features distinct scents of espresso foam, creamy vanilla bean, and almond skin, with a mouthfeel that is otherworldly.

Crafted at Tabacalera William Ventura in the Dominican Republic, the Blind Man’s Bluff Maduro Robusto delivers bold, rich flavor in a perfectly balanced medium-to-full-bodied smoke. Wrapped in a dark and oily Pennsylvania Broadleaf Maduro, with a Sumatran binder and Dominican fillers, this cigar offers notes of earth, pepper, dark chocolate, and a touch of molasses.

Smooth draw, excellent construction, and full of character — this robusto is a must-try for Maduro lovers and Caldwell fans alike.

Paradise Lost is an aged blend created by Robert Caldwell in collaboration with Room101 founder Matt Booth. It includes filler tobaccos from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic, a Dominican binder, and a San Andres Maduro wrapper. With flavors of milk, oak, pepper, and oats, this medium-bodied cigar is a perfectly balanced combination.

The Last Tsar is a cigar that pays homage to Emperor (Tsar) Nicholas II, who was the final monarch of Russia.

The tobacco leaf used as the wrapper for The Last Tsar is also used for the Caldwell Eastern Standard. The wrapper in The Last Tsar is processed differently and aged for a little longer. Caldwell said that Carbonell tobacco is a part of the blend, but the rest is not disclosed. 

You can feel notes of natural tobacco, pepper (mostly white, but some black), and tangerine-like citrus.
