Jericho Hill by Crowned Heads LBV 6.5 x 46

An ode to the Man in Black.

Not Will Smith—this cigar pays tribute to the original Man in Black, the legendary Johnny Cash. Continuing their tradition of musically inspired releases, Crowned Heads honors Cash with Jericho Hill, a bold cigar steeped in story and song. One of the most influential American singer-songwriters of all time, Cash drew heavily from his turbulent past, famously performing Cocaine Blues during his iconic Folsom Prison concert. The song tells the tale of Willy Lee, whose drug-fueled rage led to his arrest by a sheriff from Jericho Hill—and every detail of this cigar draws inspiration from that narrative.

Jericho Hill is wrapped in a dark, sultry Mexican San Andrés leaf, a nod to both Juárez, Mexico—where Willy Lee was captured—and Cash’s enduring nickname. A Nicaraguan binder and long-fillers provide structure and strength, delivering a profile with plenty of attitude. Full-bodied and unapologetic, it explodes with notes of pepper, spice, and leather from start to finish. Only a powerful blend could properly honor a legend like Johnny Cash, and Jericho Hill delivers in full.

Crowned Heads Jericho Hill earned a well-deserved 90 rating, with notes describing a cigar that begins herbal and woody before developing richer flavors of toast, nuts, and spice, culminating in a licorice-tinged finish.

RIP, JC.
