Most cigars are named after one thing. Jacobs Ladder by Southern Draw is named after three: a story in the Bible, a flowering plant, and after Ethan Jacob Holt the son of two of Southern Draw’s founders. Made in Nicaragua by AJ Fernandez, the Southern Draw Jacobs Ladder cigar is composed of a dark USA Pennsylvania Broadleaf maduro wrapper that is wound around an Ecuadorian maduro binder, which contains filler tobaccos from Nicaragua. Southern Draw Jacobs Ladder is a full-bodied, medium-strength premium cigar that is full of flavor and sure to captivate cigar lovers of all stripes.

A bit lighter and creamer than I was expecting but still a nice solid flavorful smoke overall with a solid burn and draw.
David DeLong · Jacob's Brimstone Perfecto · Mon Jun 29
Every dependable ladder needs a solid structure, and works best when we take things one step at a time. The Brimstone embodies these traits in the crux of its design. Things start out a bit wobbly with the gar's peppery notes, but quickly regain their footing as the flavor profile segues into aromatic wheat toast. This is easily one of the most dependable smokes I've enjoyed; no relights and an even burn. Also like any good ladder, it lasts a surprisingly long time before having to be replaced; requiring little to no maintenance. Setting this aside as a vespertine stick is ideal in my humble opinion. Its vitola belies how densely packed the tobacco is, and the wrapper used is a robust insulator. Unless you smoke like a freight train this will burn longer than expected. I should also add that the band is handsome, featuring attractive color interplay that evokes the qualities of a good investment - which this cigar certainly is.

Final Thoughts
I really want to like Southern Draw, but so far I’m batting 0 for 3 with their offerings, and this one didn’t change that. I didn’t like anything about this cigar — the only positive was that the burn was good. Other than that, it was a hard no for me and not something I would smoke again.

Very nice potent smoke. Lots of espresso flavors with hints of chocolate. Also got a ton of earthy tones. Not an everyday smoke, but good if you want something hearty

Love this guy. Perfect draw a bit of a uneven flaky burn but flavors are fantastic sweet milk chocolate slight spice coffee this is my top 5 always satisfied and a good price

Cigar surprised me, smooth and medium body. Good long last flavours. Cant decide which broadleaf I like more.

Good, not great
Joe Cortese · Jacob's Robusto · Tue Jun 24
Draw was very good. Had to touch it up once, but the burn was perfect afterwards.
Black pepper. Cocoa. Grain alcohol. Dark fruit leather. Oak. Paprika. Soil. Roasted almonds. Coffee. Complexity slows between the 1st and 2nd third.
High points for appearance - something about that particular blue hue up against the dark and sturdy wrapper looks sexy. Good smoke output. Medium finish and nice mouthfeel. I liked it a lot.
