Spirit of The Month
Casa Dragones Tequila Joven
dubbed, “Tastemaker’s Top Tequila”
Handcrafted in small batches in Tequila, Mexico- Casa
Dragones Joven is a rare style of 100% Pure Blue Agave
tequila, hand-finished by gently balancing silver tequila
with extra aged tequila for a complex, smooth taste that’s
perfect for sipping.
One sip of this heavenly spirit will prove to you that tequila
is from HEAVEN.
The flavor of Casa Dragones Tequila Joven is dominated
by a smooth smoked oak and vanilla experience for the
tongue. The texture is like silk rolling down your throat.
Although, its a little pricey the true tequila snob will find
satisfaction as all of the senses come alive with this liquid.
I can only describe this drinking experience as “a mothers
warmth.”
Take the time to find this brand and keep it in your man
cave.

EVANSTONMAN’S
Liga Privada
Undercrown Maduro
This cigar, released in 2011, came about because the
torcedores at the Drew Estate factory were smoking so
many Liga Privadas that the company was having trouble
keeping inventory.
The Undercrown has dark brooding syrup and cocoa
powder notes. The wrapper tastes of hints of cognac or
rum. The ’09 Verite was more earthy, savory, smooth, and
delicately balanced.
The Undercrown uses a Connecticut-grown stalk-cut
Habano leaf (the same one used in Liga Privada T52) for
its binder, and the filler is a blend of Brazilian Mata Fina
and Cuban-seed Nicaraguan tobaccos.
The result, as you could well imagine, is outstanding.
Undercrown is chocolaty, earthy, creamy, and peppery
with some of the richest tobacco flavors you can find.
The construction is on par with any Drew Estate cigar,
and ensures an easy draw and razor-straight burn from
start to finish.
