The return of the Serie E. As most releases from Crowned Heads are, this cigar is influenced by music. Specifically “eruption” by Van Halen

I listened to that solo and saw it as a sonic metaphor for smoking this cigar…” “…From the drum and bass intro, which I saw as the cutting-lighting-prep of the cigar, to the mixing of triads and harmonics which I compared to the complexity of the flavor profile, to the bottoming-out dive bombs that was reminiscent of the finish of the cigar, it al paralleled seamlessly. The CHC Serie E smoking experience is a medium-plus-bodied dance on the edge between technical mastery and random entropy, resolving in a balanced, melodious harmony. – Jon Huber
