Description

Neanderthal was released originally in 2015.  It was born out of founder Skip Martin’s affection for full flavor, full bodied cigars that balanced power and flavor.

The line is notable for its flat caps and the use of Pennsylvania Green River One Sucker, a type of ligero that is one of the more powerful types of tobacco being used by companies today.

Each Neanderthal vitola is loaded with rich, bold flavors of espresso, mocha, black pepper, and features a distinctive flat cap, perfect for punch cutters and “score” cutting
