Sublimes Cigars are hand-made in the Little Havana neighborhood of Miami. They feature all Cuban-seed tobaccos, including Nicaraguan-grown Habano longfillers and binder, and a gorgeous, tawny-hued Cuban-seed Ecuadorian Habano Rosado wrapper. I present to you Sublimes Cigars.
The first impressions of flavor are an explosion of rich, creamy coffee and cocoa tastes, over a velvety background of wood and leather. The cigars are rock-solid and densely packed with tobacco, and finished in a veinless, seamless roll. The draw from a cap cut is dead-even despite the remarkable density of the cigar, delivering a hearty smoke volume of above average strength.
The first inch also shows a buttery almond aspect, and hints of nutmeg and cinnamon that play towards spice, but rather favor subtlety and smoothness. As the flavors develop, this creamy aspect stands up, and evolves into a crème brulee character, though utterly absent of sweetness. The burn is ring straight, and the pure white ash is solid and finely scaled, holding fast at an inch and a half, with perfect double cones.
In the second half, the coffee flavors have moved to the back, giving the reins to the wood and leather facets, which have grown in depth and richness, developing a roundness in body, while retaining the rich, buttery cream aspect. It smokes cool and slow, with a mellow finish and an inch and a quarter nub at 75 minutes, delivering puff after puff of silky-smooth flavor, despite the better than average fortaleza.
I’m happy to rate this cigar as one of the best cigars I’ve enjoyed all year. It’s great with rich Cognac or your finest Single Malt Scotch. The flavors are voluminous, alluring and expressive, never overly intense, but remarkably pronounced, perpetually smooth, and finely balanced with body and texture.
