TASTING NOTES

Appearance

Rich light brown and rose coloured patina with distinct veins invites immediate interest in this smoke.

Nose

Whiffs of cedar and hints of roasted coffee foreshadow the elegant personality of this smoke.

Taste

Initial flavours of cedar with a light and gentle woodiness that yields to subtle sweetness in the first third of the draw after toast. The early undertones of cedar deepen into oak with darker notes of coffee and whispers of white pepper in the second third of the draw. The final third unfolds the slight fragrant floral notes in a mellow finish. A pleasurable smoke worthy of a tryst.

SUMMARY OF CIGAR EXPERIENCE

Mark Twain was a heavy smoker, consuming between twenty and forty cigars a day. He only had two rules, as he joked on his 70th birthday, which were ‘never to smoke more than one cigar at a time’ and ‘never smoke when asleep, and never to refrain when awake.’
