Highland Park 15
Heather smoke, dried orange. Cuts the Maduro's cocoa.
An Orkney single malt aged in sherry and refill American oak. The dry orange and gentle peat hold up against the cigar's full middle without overwhelming the cap.

Tasting Notes
Cocoa, espresso, and dark leather across the first third. A long middle of black pepper and dried fig that settles into a sweetness near the band. The Maduro wrapper gives a heavier, oilier draw than the Natural — drink it slowly.
Strength: Full. Burn: 70–90 minutes. Pairs with: Highland Park 15, Booker's Small Batch, black coffee.
Origin & Blend
Nicaraguan puro from the Padrón family farms in Estelí. Sun-grown Cuban-seed Habano leaf is bayed and aged 4+ years before blending, then box-pressed and rolled at the Padrón factory. The 1964 Anniversary line was introduced to mark Padrón's 30th year — the Maduro wrapper variant arrived in 1994.
Wrapper: Cuban-seed Habano-Maduro (Nicaraguan).
Binder: Nicaraguan.
Filler: Nicaraguan, four-vintage blend.
Pairings
The Maduro is a slow, sweet cigar — it pairs against heat, peat, or unsweetened bitterness rather than sweetness on sweetness.
- Highland Park 15 — heather smoke, dried orange.
- Booker's Small Batch — barrel-strength bourbon, leather and char.
- East Nashville Roasters Black — single-origin, no cream, no sugar.
Storage & Aging
The 1964 Anniversary line ages exceptionally — Briarwood's cellar carries 2007 and 2012 box vintages on a small allocation. Hold new stock at 65–70°F / 65–70% RH. The Maduro will deepen its cocoa and coffee notes over 18–36 months; past five years the leaf softens and the burn slows further.
Briarwood Reserved Locker and Founders members can store boxes in house at the cellar's 68/68 set-point.
