Detailed Description
The H99 Flying Pig takes Liga’s famed intensity and channels it through a short figurado designed to maximize flavor per puff. The hybrid Connecticut Corojo wrapper—cultivated for oil and tensile integrity—adds a polished frame of cedar-laced spice and subtle tang. Underneath, the blend layers earth, cocoa, dark sweetness, and pepper in a tightly woven profile that remains composed as the taper opens and the ring gauge broadens.
Expect a cool, deliberate burn with thick, fragrant smoke output and a firm, tidy ash. The Pig’s unique proportions help the H99 showcase cadence-friendly transitions: an assertive, spice-tinged opening settles into savory depth, then swells into a cocoa-rich midsection before finishing with woods, leather, and a clean, lingering echo.
For enthusiasts who prize Liga richness but want a format suited to shorter windows, the H99 Flying Pig offers concentrated satisfaction without compromise—an expressive, collectible entry in Drew Estate’s most coveted line.
