So how do you improve on a cigar that won the #1 Cigar of the Year Award in 2015? (Blind Man's Puff)
FHK has been long sold out—and for good reason! It’s one of the most delicious, sophisticated, and complex cigars ever blended.
So leave it to us to want to tinker around with it and MAKE IT EVEN BETTER!
FHK BLACK EDITION is the next evolution in FHK! The original has been long gone for a couple of years...and it’s taken us this long to procure the very aged and very rare tobaccos needed to make this extremely special next chapter of this cigar!
To do it justice…I'd need an hour to tell you the backstory of this amazing blend. It's taken us years of searching--countless miles traveled--and going to some places you've never even heard of--to get the ultra-rare tobaccos that are in FHK BLACK EDITION!
So yes, FHK BLACK EDITION holds a very special place in our heart. And yes, I have some secreted away in my personal humidor. (And no....I'm not gonna share any of it!)
FHK BLACK EDITION is a full-bodied, medium-strength 6x52 classic toro. Wrapper is a chocolatey 10-year-aged San Andres maduro leaf. Fillers will remain a very closely guarded secret...but they are all between 5-13 years aged!
First light is an explosion of flavor! Dark chocolate, raw sugar cane, toasted nuts, and whipped cream rush across the palate. Hints of cinnamon stick, and roasted espresso beans follow immediately after. The finish lingers long on the tongue with notes of nutmeg and cream. Retrohale adds a warming black pepper burn.
As it progresses, the age of the tobacco starts to be tasted immediately. The flavor is hard to describe...but it's incredible! Along with that are hints of dark brown sugar, bourbon barrel, and white pepper.
Halfway, salted caramel, rich milk chocolate, aged leather, and nuts emerge. The richness goes up another level. Hints of cocoa, vanilla beans, hazelnut, and clove appear. The balance between sweet and savory is perfect. Amazing!
Last third, the richness and depth of the flavors goes completely off the charts! Huge waves of dark chocolate reappear. Powdered sugar, walnuts, black licorice, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and butter. The last third of this cigar could possibly be the most complex flavors I've ever experienced in a cigar!
FHK BLACK EDITION should win a #1 Cigar of the Year! In our opinion, it’s even better than the 2015 release! We wish we could've made a bigger batch of these for you...but the tobaccos were just too scarce!
FHK BLACK EDITION will be SOLD OUT so fast! Sincerest apologies to those who miss it! We always try to let everyone know ASAP whenever there's a new release. (Make sure to join our text notifications by texting EzraZion to 817-391-9271.)
Take my advice: Get this quick and whatever you were gonna order...double it! If you only get one cigar this year...make it this one!
Getcha Some NOW!

"I have smoked through 9 of the 15 cigars I purchased and here is my conclusion. This is a medium body, mild smoke with a fair amount of flavor. It does not meet my expectations for a $12.00 cigar. This cigar is boring. It has the same marginally good flavor from beginning to end. As to strength, I can take a full draw and retrohale completely and quickly without a bit of discomfort, as if I was exhaling fresh air. I regret purchasing this cigar."
"I love Ezra’s taking the bull by the horn attitude, this stick delivers! That chocolate wave is evident from the start. I was surprised how smooth it is being a San Andreas Maduro, but the filler blend balances it out quite nicely. My humidor has many Ezra Zion cigars."
"A perfect stick!"
"I’ve been smoking cigars regularly for 13 years. Ezra Zion cigars are some of the best I’ve ever smoked. The FHK Black is an outstanding example. Sweet, creamy, smooth and an absolute flavor bomb. Construction, draw, wrapper all flawless. You won’t find a more flavorful cigar. I’m a huge fan of everything Ezra."
"I've heard great things, but these just tasted dusty unfortunately"
