7-20-4: 1874 Series Lancero Especial Cigars

Founded by Kurt A. Kendall, owner of Twin Smokes Shop in New Hampshire, 7-20-4 cigars honor the old R.G. Sullivan "7-20-4" cigar factory located on 724 Elm St. in Kendall's hometown of Manchester, NH. Sullivan's company was established in 1874 and at one time was the leading manufacturer of 10-cent cigars, before the Cuban embargo caused the factory to close in 1962. Kendall's 7-20-4 brand revitalizes the factory's tradition and prestige with a range of approachable cigars comprising premium tobaccos across an array of vitolas.

Released in 2011 as 7-20-4's second regular production line, the 1874 Series cigar celebrates the founding date of R.G. Sullivan's original 7-20-4 Cigar Company. It features a five-year-aged Nicaraguan Habano wrapper from Jalapa complemented by an Indonesian binder and a four-year-aged filler blend of Honduran tobaccos and Nicaraguan leaf from Jalapa and Estelí. Marked by a medium-to-full body and superbly balanced notes of toast, butter, and raisin, with spice on the retrohale, the 7-20-4 1874 Series is available here in the 7.5" x 38 Lancero Especial vitola.
