Drew Estate has announced that the Liga Privada Único Serie Pancetta, an annual limited edition available only through Wooden Indian Tobacco Shop in Havertown, Pa., and Barrister Cigars in Union, N.J., is returning once again.
The Pancetta is a 4 3/4 x 50 short belicoso that uses the same Connecticut stalk-cut habano wrapper found on Liga Privada T52 over a Brazilian mata fina binder and fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua. sSnce the cigar debuted in 2019, it has been released annually to the two stores.
The cigars are now available for preorder with a price of $14.99 per cigar and $149.99 for a box of 10 cigars. One notable change for this year is a shift to a smaller box quantity; previously, Pancetta had been available in 24-count boxes.
“We are thrilled to bring the Liga Privada Unico Serie Pancetta back to our dedicated patrons at Wooden Indian and Barrister Cigars,” the company wrote in a press release. “This cigar is renowned for its richness and impeccable craftsmanship. The shift to a 10-count box for the Liga Privada Unico Pancetta is fantastic because it means this high-quality cigar is now more accessible. Drew Estate has done a wonderful job with this update, and we’re excited to see our customers’ reactions to this new packaging.”
The cigars will be released on July 27, and will make its debut at the New Jersey Cigar Festival. Production numbers have not been disclosed.
