Surrogates by L'Atelier - Skull Breaker (Box of 20)

When Pete Johnson, founder of Tatuaje Cigars first introduced the Surrogates line from L’Atelier It was meant to be a single store release. Well lucky for the rest of the us the line turned out to be a winner and has now become a national limited-edition release. What makes the line unique is that while each blend uses Nicaraguan binder and filler, they utilize different wrappers, and are sized to best compliment their blend. The cigars are expertly crafted at Don Pepin’s My Father factory in Nicaragua. Pete Johnson’s blending prowess is once again on display and Surrogates are cigars that you’ll want in your humidor, so don’t hesitate or you’ll miss out. Skull Breaker – Full-bodied.
