Stolen Throne Cigars Yorktown Fleet
Discover a voyage of flavor and craftsmanship with the Stolen Throne Yorktown Fleet, a standout in boutique cigars. Since its founding in 2019, Stolen Throne has become a go-to brand for aficionados, and the Yorktown Fleet continues this tradition with a memorable Sumatra-wrapped experience, expertly rolled for a balanced, complex journey in every draw.
- Wrapper: Dark, silky Ecuadorian Sumatra—eye-catching, flavorful, and complex
- Filler & Binder: Nicaraguan tobaccos deliver power, earth, and rich undertones
- Body: Medium to full, robust but never overwhelming—great for veterans or those exploring stronger cigars
- Flavor Profile:
- Chewy smoke with notes of cedar and savory earthiness
- Dark chocolate and baking spices (cinnamon, pepper)
- Nutty sweetness and subtle black pepper on the retrohale
- A soft box press and covered foot that emphasizes initial wrapper flavor
- Performance: Consistently praised for smooth draw and even burn; impressive ash holds and flavor intensity that grows through the smoke
- Reviewer Tips: Allow to rest a week or two post-purchase for optimum smoothness; flavors build and deepen throughout, rewarding slow, mindful smoking
- Versatility: Enjoyable for both seasoned palates and newcomers, though “quick puffing” may lead to a slight bitter note—take your time for best results
Reviewers agree: Yorktown Fleet brings a rich spectrum of cedar, dark chocolate, baking spice, pepper, earth, and a sweet sumatra finish, all with chewy, mouth-filling smoke. While not as highly rated as some other Stolen Throne classics (“Call to Arms” and “Crook of the Crown”), it delivers a very enjoyable, balanced profile worthy of a repeat smoke. The covered foot elevates the wrapper impact on light-up, while notes intensify as oils build on the palate. Proper resting time and a slow pace reward the smoker with increased depth and minimal harshness.

This is only the second stick I’ve had from Stolen Thrones and I loved the other. I loved the earthy notes on this. Cedar, baking spices and cocoa. The flavors were solid as well as the construction. I would definitely would smoke this again.

The Yorktown Fleet is a solid smoke. Complex profile that is balanced out very well. Cedar, cinnamon, dark chocolate and black pepper. Enjoyable smoking experience and one I’d go back to again.

The construction of The Yorktown Fleet is solid, with a soft box press, not a common treatment based on the other releases from Stolen Throne Cigars. What sets the Yorktown Fleet apart is its rich and complex flavor profile. The Nicaraguan tobaccos harmonize to deliver a perfect balance of spice, earthiness, and a subtle sweetness. Each draw unfolds a symphony of flavors, making it a journey for the palate. The burn is consistent, and the ash holds impressively, reflecting the high-quality leaf used in its creation. Whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or a newcomer to the world of cigars, the Stolen Throne Cigars Yorktown Fleet is a delightful indulgence. It not only showcases the excellence of Nicaraguan tobacco but also stands as a testament to the dedication of Stolen Throne Cigars in producing a cigar that is enjoyable.

I love stolen throne and Sumatra, so I was very excited for this cigar. The one one I lit up was harsh for the first half, so I let it die out. I waited a couple weeks then tried again and it made a world of difference. I was met with loads of spice and sweetness with a peppery retrohale. I still think CTA is a best stolen throne, but I would not overlook this. Just don’t smoke it ROTT and let it rest a week or two

I snagged a fiver of the robusto a few months ago since I’ve enjoyed almost everything from Stolen Throne thus far. I’m such a huge fan of the call to arms as well. This is a much darker Sumatra than it’s counterpart. Beautiful draw which I’ve seen on all the stolen thrones I’ve had the pleasure of smoking.
I love the continuation of the covered foot so you can get that blast of wrapper flavor right off the bat. This cigar has chewy smoke with a nice peppery retro hale. I recommend regular retro to appreciate the full spectrum of flavor. Sweet Sumatra notes with a dark nutty profile. The oil builds on the palate and flavors intensify throughout the burn. I only rate this at a 4 because it does not beat the call to arms for my palate. Fiver to bundle worthy and definitely worth revisiting/aging.

Another good offering from Stolen Throne. I wouldn’t put it above the crook of the crown or the unstolen valor, but it was still very enjoyable. Breast and earthy with a nice spice level. I’d be happy to smoke it again.

I enjoyed the taste of these. I did find a little of a bitter note when smoking them a little fast. They seem to be a little under filled, so it’s easy to smoke fast. Other than that, I enjoyed these.
