Fourteen years of blending, aging, and quietly stashing away the best of what came across the table. That's what went into the Ezra Zion 14 Year Anniversary — a milestone release built around a stunning 14-year-aged Corojo Rosado wrapper and a filler blend of tobaccos aged between 6 and 15 years. The wrapper alone is the kind of leaf you don't build a regular-production cigar around. Ezra Zion held onto it for exactly this moment.
Rolled as a 6×54 super-toro, the 14 Year Anniversary drinks like a decade-and-a-half of patience. Full-bodied, medium-to-full in strength, with the kind of composure that only seriously aged tobacco delivers. Binder and filler tobaccos remain a closely guarded secret — as they should.

Tasting Journey
First Light: Opens with dark chocolate, dark brown sugar, and cappuccino leading the palate. Black pepper and vanilla bean fill in the middle; heavy whipping cream rounds it out. The finish lingers with all-spice, licorice, and bourbon barrel. The retrohale delivers a bright hot-pepper burn — a signal the aged tobacco underneath is already working.
Second Third: The sweetness matures. Raw honey and caramel push forward, joined by nougat and tanned leather. Cardamom and maple hold on the palate between draws. Each note stacks on the last as the aged filler starts to speak clearly.
Halfway: The profile turns. Buttered French toast, dried fruit, and taffy emerge. Sweet iced tea and buttercream carry the finish. The unmistakable richness of well-aged tobacco takes over — this is what Ezra Zion held that leaf for.
Last Third: The finish goes deeper still. Espresso and molasses lead, joined by cinnamon stick, toasted marshmallow, and cocoa. Black walnut, mesquite, and all-spice add depth. The burn stays cool, the complexity keeps building, and the flavor holds all the way to the nub. A finish worth the fourteen years it took to get here.
