Storage Instructions
For the Capitol Jack store your cigars in a stable humidor to keep them at their best. Aim for a relative humidity of 65 to 70 percent and a temperature between 65ºF and 70ºF, which is about 18ºC to 21ºC. If you keep the Capitol Jack for longer periods, maintain the humidity near 68 percent to preserve oils and flavor. Different wrapper types common to this line will respond slightly differently to humidity. Lighter Connecticut or Claro wrappers enjoy the lower end of the range, closer to 65 percent, while Maduro or oily wrappers feel best closer to 68 to 70 percent. Use a calibrated hygrometer and check it regularly, and season your humidor before long term storage. For short trips use a travel humidor or reliable humidification pack set to 65 or 69 percent, and avoid exposing the Capitol Jack to rapid temperature swings or direct sunlight.
Care Tips
Handle the Capitol Jack with clean dry hands to protect the wrapper and avoid pinching the cap. Cut with a sharp guillotine or a punch that suits the ring gauge, and toast the foot gently before drawing for an even burn. If you buy the Capitol Jack for immediate enjoyment let it rest in the humidor for a few days to stabilize after transit. If you plan to age a box, allow several months in a well maintained humidor to let the flavors marry and mellow. Rotate cigars occasionally in long term storage to ensure even humidity exposure. Never store cigars in a refrigerator or freezer, and avoid overly dry conditions which can cause cracking and overly fast burns. With proper handling and storage the Capitol Jack will deliver the best balance of aroma and flavor every time you light one.

Tasting Notes
The Capitol Jack presents a refined, medium‑to‑full body that unfolds with layered complexity from first light to nub. Expect warm cedar and rich leather at the core, underscored by black pepper and toasted nuts that lend a savory backbone. Mid‑palate brings concentrated espresso and dark cocoa, while a subtle molasses sweetness and creamy finish round out the smoke. Aromas are invitingly earthy and spicy, with hints of baking spice and warm tobacco that linger on the senses.
Pairing Suggestions
Small‑batch bourbon, its caramel, vanilla and toasted oak notes mirror the cigar’s sweet and woody facets, creating a harmonious, warming pairing; Italian espresso, the concentrated roast and bright crema sharpen the Capitol Jack’s espresso and dark chocolate elements, balancing richness with a brisk, bitter counterpoint; 70% dark chocolate or a nutty aged cheddar, both accentuate the cigar’s cocoa and nutty qualities, offering a luxurious, textural complement to the smoke.
