Crowned Heads has announced its new event cigar, Starwood. It pays homage to the iconic Starwood Amphitheater in Nashville, Tennessee. The theater opened in 1986 and operated until 2006, before being demolished in 2007. Starwood replaces Blood Medicine as Crowned Heads’ event cigar, as Blood Medicine was recently added as a limited-edition line.
“Starwood was more than a venue, it was a rite of passage for so many people in Nashville,” commented Jon Huber, Crowned Heads President. “I vividly remember seeing Cheap Trick open for Stone Temple Pilots back in May of 1997 at the Starwood. The lawn, the lights, the roar of the audience, all created an indelible memory for anyone who saw a show there. With this cigar, we were inspired to create an exceptional smoke that is meant to be enjoyed in good company, the same way the best shows always were.”
Starwood comes in one size – a 5 x 50 Robusto. It features an Ecuadorian Habano Oscuro wrapper. The binder and fillers come from three regions of Nicaragua (Estelí, Jalapa, and Ometepe). Starwood is produced at Nicaragua American Cigars S.A. (NACSA). They are available solely at select Crowned Heads events.
