Cigar Review: Quesada Keg Edition

 

(Halfwheel) After blending the Oktoberfest to be paired with beer, Quesada is at it again, this time releasing a new blend in a somewhat unconventional packing in commemoration of St. Patrick’s Day. The Quesada Keg Edition is a 6 x 50 toro that incorporates Nicaraguan tobacco for the binder and filler, and is covered in a broadleaf wrapper from Pennsylvania. Rolled at Plasencia Cigars S.A. in Esteli, Nicaragua, the new release retails for $7.95 each and is limited to 250 kegs of 21.
