The Sidekick was the result of a collaboration between the two cigar making companies, and as you would expect it’s impressive. Cigar Aficionado has recently (Jan 2024) rated it at 95.
A box pressed cigar, medium to full bodied,the Sidekick uses a rich brown Ecuadorian Sumatra seed wrapper, the binder leaf and the filler leaf are both from Nicaragua. The profile is creamy with notes of pepper, leather and roasted coffee mingle with hints of burnt oak, some nuttiness and vanilla.
