Hooten Young Gothic Serpent 30th Anniversary
Immerse yourself in the historic richness and impeccable craftsmanship with the Hooten Young Gothic Serpent 30th Anniversary Edition. This cigar is not just a tribute to a significant military operation; it’s an embodiment of respect, reverence, and unmatched quality.
Introduced with great acclaim at the 2023 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, the Hooten Young Gothic Serpent 30th Anniversary cigar pays homage to Operation Gothic Serpent, a consequential military venture executed in Mogadishu, Somalia, by Task Force Ranger during the tumultuous times of the Somali Civil War in 1993. As the name suggests, this is the 30th-anniversary tribute to that operation. It follows the 25th-anniversary homage by the legendary retired Special Mission Unit Master Sergeant Norm Hooten & Tim Young, ensuring that the valor of the past continues to be celebrated.
With a craftsmanship that is second to none, the Hooten Young Gothic Serpent 30th Anniversary is produced by the maestro Eladio Diaz at the renowned Tabacalera Diaz Cabrera factory. The cigar boasts a blend that promises an intriguing journey for your palate. The Sumatra wrapper graces the exterior, known for its earthy, spicy, and somewhat sweet undertones. Beneath lies a robust San Andres Mexican binder, adding rich, chocolatey and slightly spicy notes. The core is filled with premium Dominican tobacco, contributing to a smooth, creamy texture with hints of cedar and sweetness.
The Hooten Young Gothic Serpent 30th Anniversary is released as a 6 1/4 x 54 Belicoso, a vitola renowned for its tapered head which focuses the flavors, delivering a more concentrated and intense smoking experience.
