Sláinte, Get ready for another exceptional month filled with outstanding cigars, and sought after limited-editions—handpicked exclusively for you.
Lately, we’ve been purchasing cigars months in advance, ensuring we’re locked in with top brands and manufacturers. This means you can expect even more limited-edition and small-batch releases in the coming months. No other club delivers as many rare and specialty cigars as KOTL, and we know you appreciate that.
With St. Patrick’s Day approaching, we’re kicking things off with the Shamrock Limited Edition—a three-wrapper barber pole cigar that takes last year’s Filthy Hooligan (which featured a dual-wrapper design) to the next level by incorporating a Candela wrapper for a unique, festive smoke.
Next up is Dissident Cigars' Limited Edition Molotov, a bold and unconventional release that delivers complexity in every puff. Following that, we have the Punch Bottle Rockets LE, a powerhouse smoke packed with rich, fiery flavor.
Rounding out the lineup is The Messenger by Valacari Cigars, a boutique luxury brand which has made a name for itself within just a few years.. This blend features a silky Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper that’s bursting with flavor and balance.
And finally, we have a blockbuster collaboration between AJ Fernandez, Robert Caldwell, and Matt Booth. Last year, we featured the The T in connecticut shade, and this time, we’re bringing you its bolder counterpart—the San Andrés Maduro-wrapped, box-pressed version. This is a blend that demands attention.
So without further ado, let’s get straight to it. As always, thank you for your steadfast support and membership in KOTL. Enjoy!

SHAMROCK Limited Edition - Alec Bradley
A St. Patrick’s Day Classic
The Alec Bradley Black Market Filthy Hooligan Shamrock is a showstopper—both in appearance and flavor. This limited-edition cigar is instantly recognizable with its striking triple-wrapped barber pole design, featuring a blend of aged Honduran Candela, Nicaraguan Habano, and rich Maduro leaves. This meticulous craftsmanship isn’t just for looks—it creates a dynamic smoking experience that evolves with every puff.
Expertly blended 6x50 Toro uses premium Honduran and Panamanian tobaccos, the Shamrock delivers a complex and balanced profile. The first draw introduces fresh-cut grass and creamy vanilla, followed by earthy undertones, toasted wood, and a touch of black pepper spice. Each layer of wrapper leaf adds depth, making every puff unique.
