The latest from Crowned Heads is on the way to retailers.
Yesterday, the company began shipping The Mason-Dixon Project—Limited Edition 2014. According to co-owner Jon Huber, the cigars will be shipped throughout the next week until the company has shipped out all 2,500 boxes for the release.
Inspiration for this project comes from the used to separate Pennsylvania and Maryland.
