Headley Grange was a poor house located in Headley, Hampshire, England. It was later converted into a recording studio. Some big name bands passed through there. Zeppelin, Bad Company, Fleetwood Mac, Genesis, Peter Frampton to name a few. Genesis did most of their recording of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway at Headley. And Led Zeppelin recorded Houses of the Holy there. The good folks at Crowned Heads wanted to make a cigar that tasted like the driving drumbeat that John Bonham laid down on the track "When the Levee Breaks."
The song was recorded at Headley Grange, hence the name. Cigar lovers everywhere are better for their effort....

2 evenings ago, I heard a radio program where they were talking with Jimmy Page about the release of some new remastered editions of the Zepelin catalogue. They played an alternate version of When the Levee Breaks and talked a lot about the recording at Headley Grange. The drums were so muted in the other version that all I could think was @JonHuber would have never made a cigar based on that.
