In today's lexicon, Henry Clay is better known as a premium combustable good than the American politician it is named for. But with the Henry Clay War Hawk, the brand seeks to turn the attention back towards its namesake, honoring the fighting spirit that the former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives became known.
Henry Clay was a staunch U.S. nationalist that became a leading voice among a faction of Congress known as "War Hawks," signifying their desire for war with the United Kingdom (War of 1812) as an ultimate resolution of conflict.
With the Henry Clay War Hawk, the brand takes a cue from Clay's rebellious nature, opting to showcase a contrasting style from the Henry Clay cigars seen in the past. Where the brand has long been known for its usage of gritty Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrappers, War Hawk reverses course, instead featuring a silky smooth Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade leaf. This traditionally mild ingredient is then juxtaposed against a Broadleaf binder and hearty fillers harvested throughout Honduras.
War Hawk pulls back the reins, though it hasn't lost its fighting spirit—showcasing smooth flavors of oats, buttered crackers, and cream, with fiery characteristics that come creeping up in the background. This is one Connecticut that defies rank and file!

So good you will want to keep some of these in your humidor at all time. For the times you want a medium strength cigar but don't want to sacrifice flavor and body. The Henry Clay War Hawk will hit the spot every time with rich creamy smoke.

Not too fancy but not a budget cigar. Perfect for the mod day smoke. More a medium body and decent flavor profile.

Like the commercial on KMA says, it pairs great with a lemonade! I prefer an Italian sparkling lemonade..., it's the only thing I'll drink with it. The pepper brings some heat and the flavors stand out. It's got a secure spot in our humidor.

Awesome morning smoke! I keep these on hand to give to novice smokers as well. The profile is perfectly balanced with the right amount of spice on the retrohale.
