The smallest version of Crowned Heads’ Juárez brand will return for a second release next month.

Crowned Heads says the Juárez Shots will begin shipping again next month, now known as Shots 2021. The 4 x 50 debuted last February as a limited edition extension to the line. It uses the same blend as the regular Juárez: a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over an Ecuadorian Sumatra binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua.

Like last year, there will be 500 boxes of 50 cigars. The one difference is the price will increase from $5.45 to $5.60 per cigar.

“Juárez, as a brand, experienced dramatic growth in 2020,” said Jon Huber, Crowned Heads co-founder, in a press release. “The Shots are a great limited seasonal release that gives fans of Juárez a short format option to enjoy the blend not only during the cold weather months, but any time of year.”

Juárez is produced at Tabacalera Pichardo in Estelí, Nicaragua.
