Chaotic 9INth Anniversary Edition
The Chaotic 9INth Anniversary Edition celebrates 9 years of NOMAD—Ezra Zion’s uncompromising journey in boutique blending. An ultra-rare, ultra-rich 6×46 skinny toro, this cigar was originally intended as the Ezra Zion 9-Year Anniversary blend, but production was limited to just 395 cigars due to the scarcity of its legendary aged tobaccos. Featuring a vintage Criollo 98 wrapper and a mix of secret binder and filler leaves (all 9–14 years aged), Chaotic 9INth is a tribute to passion, craftsmanship, and chaos—in the best way possible.

Detailed Description
From the first spark, Chaotic 9INth explodes with vibrant caramel, deep dark chocolate, and whipped buttercream, quickly followed by spicy red pepper, candied walnut, and a rich, sweet red oak note. The midsection amplifies the experience—dark roast coffee, bourbon, cinnamon stick, clove, black pepper, and an undercurrent of semi-sweet chocolate chips and cane sugar.

Smelled very strongly of tobacco when it first arrived, I will be honest and say it was part of my first proper non-Cuban hauls (I’m not a US citizen nor am I in the US so perfectly legal and normal), I was rather appalled by the lack of chocolaty sweetness I get from a good Cuban and decided to let a rest for a *long* time in my humidors. Now it doesn’t smell as strongly and seems to have settled with a faint sweet hint that’s far from mellowed out just yet. The closed foot was easy to light, overall the cigar was well constructed and not as hash as my nose lead me to believe. Yes you can taste the age, no you can’t taste everything EZ put in their descriptions, it is a good cigar but not going to be one of my favourites… I will see in a few months/years if that changes at all!
