About this cigar

Jericho Hill is Crowned Heads' Johnny Cash-inspired line, named for a lyric from “Cocaine Blues.” Made at My Father Cigars S.A. in Nicaragua, Jack Brown combines a Mexican San Andrés maduro wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and long-filler tobaccos for a spicy, assertive medium-full smoke.

Aging & storage · Guidance

How to keep it

General humidor guidance for this cigar, based on its wrapper, strength, ring gauge and packaging.

Storage

Hold the box at 65–70% relative humidity at 65–70°F (18–21°C). Steady humidity matters far more than the exact number — swings are what crack wrappers.

Rest after delivery

Thicker ring gauges hold shipping moisture longest — give these boxes three to four weeks in the humidor before the first one.

Aging window

Full-bodied blends reward patience: a year or two of quiet aging typically trades raw power for depth.

In the box

Age them in their own box where possible — the cedar keeps the cigars marrying together instead of taking on the flavour of everything else in the humidor.
