The King Is Dead – The Last Payday Torpedo is a bold, boutique standout from Caldwell Cigar Company, expertly handcrafted in the Dominican Republic. Measuring 6 x 52, this torpedo features a rare Dominican Negrito wrapper and filler—an unconventional tobacco known for its intensity and complexity. In a masterful collaboration with Tabacalera Ventura, Robert Caldwell transformed this challenging leaf into a richly balanced, medium-to-full-bodied smoke with notes of cedar, earth, dark cocoa, and subtle spice. Recognized for its innovation and flavor, The Last Payday was honored as the #19 Cigar of the Year in 2015 by Cigar Aficionado with a 92 rating, solidifying its place as a must-try for fans of unique, boutique craftsmanship.
