The story of Southern Draw
Southern Draw Cigars has worked with A.J. Fernandez Cigar Co. on the development and production of its blends. By 2021, the two companies described their collaboration as having continued for 10 years.
In 2019, Southern Draw expanded several parts of its portfolio. It added the 300 HANDS Connecticut blend, introduced three line extensions for Cedrus and released the Fraternal Order White and Fraternal Order Black private blends, produced in Estelí, Nicaragua.
The house marked its first appearance at the Tobacco Plus Expo in Las Vegas with the release of a 7.5 x 40 Cedrus Lancero in 2020. In 2021, it announced Manzanita and released Jacobs Ladder – The Ascension, a box-pressed, open-foot Belicoso Fino based on a 2013 version of the brand.
