La Palina KB Series Part One 4"1/4 * 40

The La Palina KB Series Part One is a medium to full-strength stick that when it was first developed, it was too strong for Bill Paley, the brand’s owner, to finish it (“KB” stands for ‘Kill Bill”). This petit corona features an enticing reddish Honduran Corojo wrapper placed over a Honduran Criollo double binder, and a filler made of Nicaraguan Corojo and Criollo leaves. Strong but flavorful, this stick provides an invigorating but not overwhelming smoking experience. The La Palina KB Series is handmade at the Raices Cubanas factory in Honduras.
