Black Label Trading Company Deliverance Nocturne

- Pennsylvania Broadleaf wrapper showcases rich, complex earthiness with bold character
- Third limited release since 2015 responds to overwhelming fan demand
- Historic first parejo offerings in Robusto and Toro vitolas alongside traditional figurados

The Deliverance Nocturne represents everything passionate aficionados have come to expect from Black Label Trading Company. This Pennsylvania Broadleaf masterpiece delivers an experience that transcends typical cigar expectations. From the moment you encounter its rough, oily wrapper with its intoxicating barnyard and dark cocoa aromas, you understand this creation exists in a league of its own.
James Brown, the creative force behind Black Label Trading Company and partner at Fabrica Oveja Negra, has carefully evolved this blend while maintaining its soul. The introduction of parejo vitolas marks a significant milestone for traditionalists who have requested these classic shapes. Meanwhile, purists can still acquire the signature figurados that made Nocturne legendary, including the Short Salomon “Snub Nose” and Perfecto formats that showcase the roller’s artistry.
The construction at Fabrica Oveja Negra reflects years of expertise working with challenging Pennsylvania Broadleaf wrapper. Each cigar undergoes meticulous quality control, ensuring perfect draw resistance and burn characteristics despite the notoriously difficult wrapper leaf. The combination of Nicaraguan and Pennsylvania tobaccos creates a complexity that evolves dramatically through each third, revealing layers of chocolate, earth, spice, pepper, cream, and distinctive malt notes that define the Nocturne experience.
This medium to full bodied smoke develops from initial notes of sweet cedar, cinnamon, and caramel into a powerhouse of flavors including dark chocolate, charred oak, honeysuckle sweetness, and that signature Pennsylvania earthiness. The retrohale reveals additional dimensions of white pepper and floral spice that complement rather than overwhelm the palate. Expect a slow, contemplative smoking experience that can extend beyond two hours for larger vitolas.

I like to think the band had an actual picture of me after I smoked this hahaha. Actually, this has nice transitions and balance. Not something I want very often with such a dark profile. But the acidity/zestiness kept me intrigued. This was great when I could smoke it slowly, but it had some combustion issues, so I couldn’t smoke it as slowly as I wanted. I am generally not affected by nicotine but this one hit me pretty good.

Black Label Trading Company Deliverance Nocturne is a cigar I’ve really enjoyed smoking. It has that bold BLTC character right from the start, but it stays balanced and smooth throughout the experience. Construction was solid with a reliable burn and an easy draw. Flavor-wise, it leaned dark and rich—lots of earth and cocoa up front, with notes of espresso and black pepper coming through, especially on the retrohale. There’s a subtle sweetness that keeps everything in check and makes it a very approachable smoke despite the strength. Overall, Deliverance Nocturne is a well-executed cigar that delivers depth without being overwhelming. It’s one I’d happily keep in regular rotation when I’m in the mood for something darker and more full-flavored.
