Introducing the King Sargon, a commanding addition to El Septimo’s esteemed Gilgamesh Collection, personally curated by Zaya Younan. This full-bodied cigar, at 6 inches with a 52-ring gauge, is blended with three distinctive fillers that craft a complex and invigorating smoking experience, reflective of the powerful Assyrian ruler it is named after.
The King Sargon is a masterpiece of blending, delivering a robust journey from the foot to the head of the cigar. It starts with a surprising shock to the taste buds—a bold mixture of black and white pepper that captures the intensity and vigor of King Sargon’s reign. As the smoke progresses, intense notes of chili flakes make a striking appearance on the retrohale, activating all your senses and even clearing the sinuses, reminiscent of the fiery spirit and determination of the ancient ruler.
