I gave this cigar a 96 in November 2022. I loved this cigar.
It was a small release of 500 boxes of 10.
I’ve now had these cigars for over a year. And they are stunning.
Once again, I realize that cigars don’t give their all in just a few months. So, why do we review cigars after only 2-3 months…dunno.
Here are the stats:
Wrapper: Sumatra
Binder: Ecuador
Filler: Dominican
Size: 6 x 52 Torpedo
Strength: Medium/Full
Price: $16.00
This is what Andrew Considine, owner of Small Batch Cigar had to say when he released these cigars:
“I wanted Hyperion to be a celebration of Sandy’s (El Titan de Bronze owner) professional achievements as a guiding hand in some of the most influential brands in the industry, while simultaneously recognizing her fighting spirit that always cheers for the little guy (or gal) with a big story. Hyperion accomplishes everything we wanted it to and more, and it is absolutely my honor to be able to share this blend with you. Hyperion is limited to 500 bundles of 10.”
The cigars have had over a year of box aging which gives you a leg up on readying them for the dance of death.
My impressions now:
Super rich and complex. A sophisticated, manly cigar. Strong, but ultra smooth. A dense smoke. The perfect amount of subdued black pepper spiciness. The sweet spot occurs 1” into the stick. Dense. Subtle notes: cream soda, smoked almonds, cinnamon, black coffee, oily on the lips, tiny slice of candied lemon peel, and intense impressions of beautifully blended and aged tobacco.
This is one of the finest Warped collaborations I’ve smoked. A solid 2 hour psychedelic happening. If you love strong cigars that are devoid of nicotine but have a punch to the temple, this blend represents beautifully.
