El Septimo Empress Sheba Maduro Gordo

The Queen of Sheba arrives in Jerusalem accompanied by a large entourage, "with camels carrying spices, and much gold and precious stones". During her visit to Solomon, she asks the king many questions, which he answers correctly. She is impressed by Solomon's wisdom and wealth and offers him "one hundred and twenty talents of gold, a great quantity of spices, and precious stones."

This cigar pays homage to the empress who is at the heart of the "El Septimo" brand's "emperors" line. It is a cigar with oriental notes, combining spice and roundness. The format is certainly imposing, but the draw is airy, giving it a smooth and very pleasant taste.

Tasting notes

This cigar navigates through rare African spices and white pepper flavours. Its maduro wrapper envelops it with creamy yet powerful aromas. When unlit, the cigar releases a taste of nuts and nuts.

The initial attack is powerful, with spicy notes of black pepper. The power quickly fades, giving way to toasted and chocolate aromas.

Pairing

We recommend a dark spirit such as Armagnac to complement the cigar's spicy notes. For a complete Middle Eastern experience, we recommend pairing it with a gin mixed with smoked tea syrup and oriental spices.

Momentum

An evening with friends, enveloped in an enchanting cloud of smoke.
