From the Ezra Zion HQ:
“FORTUNE favors the bold (cigar)!
Of all the “Cookie” cigars we’ve created—Chocolate Chip Cookie, Sugar Cookie, Snickerdoodle…FORTUNE COOKIE might just be our all-time favorite!
This cigar is almost…Mystical…It’s SO unique and SO delicious!
It’s a cookie like no other cookie!
We released our first FORTUNE COOKIE blend way back in 2017! And when good folks of the Ezra Zion Nation smoked it...FORTUNE COOKIE was their new favorite!
It was so sweet, creamy, "vanilla-y"...well, it tasted just like a Fortune Cookie!
I’ll be blunt...FORTUNE COOKIE 2024 Ltd. is unbelievably delectable! The tobaccos are even more delicious, the blend is even more finely balanced. The flavors are even more bold and complex!
*This cigar is ABSOLUTE MAGIC!
FORTUNE COOKIE 2024 Ltd. is a full-bodied, med/full-strength 6.25x46 corona gorda. The wrapper is a pristine 10-year-aged Corojo 99 Rosado leaf. Fillers will remain a closely guarded secret...but I can tell you that they are all between 7-12 years aged!
First light is complete decadence! Instant blast of brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla bean, and leather. Hints of maple syrup and white oak. The finish adds a lingering note of clove and sweet tea. The retrohale adds a warm cinnamon burn.
As it progresses more waves of creaminess are added. Cashews and cocoa appear. The cinnamon notes take on a woodsy taste and become like a cinnamon stick. The finish tastes like vanilla ice cream. Unbelievably delicious!
Halfway, things get even more complex! Big notes of caramel develop. Hazelnut, raw sugar, whiskey, and white chocolate emerge. The age of the tobacco can be tasted. The layers of flavors are perfectly balanced. (I don't think you'll want to pair this with anything. The finish is so phenomenal!)
The last third is unreal! (I'll do my best to describe it, but you're just gonna have to smoke it to understand.) Fresh-brewed coffee mixed with heavy whipping cream. Immediately following are walnut, horchata, toffee and just a hint of cayenne pepper. You will be smacking your lips after every puff! The burn is perfect and cool all the way to the lip-burning nub!
A word of warning...You will burn your fingers and/or lips on this cigar! It smokes so perfectly down to the nub that it's hard to put down and come to terms with the fact that it's finished. (Trust me...I know from experience!)"
