The small boutique brand Apostate Cigars is adding a fourth regular production cigar to its portfolio. And just like the previous three, the cigars are made at Tabacalera Palma in Tamboril, Dominican republic.

The new cigar gets the name Feathered Serpent and it’s a 6½x46 Corona Extra. It’s made with a Dominican corojo seed candela wrapper. Under the green wrapper is a Mexican San Andres binder and Dominican filler. The name is inspired by a 13th-century Mesoamerican god commonly depicted as a mix of bird and rattlesnake who was thought to have created both the world and the humans that inhabited it. The cigars come in bundles of 12, wrapped in thick black butcher paper,

“The candela (wrapper) was chosen to play with the serpent theme,” says Brandon Oveson, founder and vp of Apostate Cigars, “This candela is creamy, sweet and more complex than it appears.”
