CAD Amazon Basin Rotschild
Let's set off together to discover the CAO Amazon Basin, a unique creation. Produced in Nicaragua, this cigar is distinguished by the use of a rare tobacco, Bragança, grown organically in the Amazon rainforest and harvested only once every three years. It is blended with tobaccos from four other countries: a wrapper from Ecuador, and leaves from Nicaragua, Colombia and the Dominican Republic for the filler.
The cape is a beautiful chocolate brown, with slight ribbing and a texture similar to tanned leather, set with a braided tobacco leaf ring. The construction is impeccable, with an even fill and reassuring firmness. Before lighting, the cold aromas reveal hints of leather, while the draught, although a little tight, announces herbaceous scents.
Les premières bouffées offrent des arômes terreux et une légère amertume de cacao. Le tirage se révèle plus aisé que prévu, ajoutant à l’agrément de la dégustation. Au fil du premier tiers, les arômes de cuir dominent, accompagnés de touches épicées vers la fin. En rétro-olfaction, des notes de noix émergent, ajoutant une dimension supplémentaire à l’expérience.
The arrival of the second third marks an increase in power. The woody aromas complement the leathery flavours already present. The cigar's strength makes it more suitable for enjoying after a meal, and it is recommended for experienced smokers. The aftertaste retains notes of nuts. The draw and burn remain constant, with the combustion regulating itself.
As it approaches the braided ring, the aromas become slightly creamy while maintaining a nice power. Woody, leathery and earthy flavours persist, with a hint of liquorice emerging in the second third. The cigar leaves a pleasant leather aftertaste on the palate.
Le CAO Amazon Basin Rotschild offre une expérience de dégustation fascinante, avec une évolution subtile des arômes et une puissance bien dosée. La fumée est ample et généreuse, et le cigare révèle des notes boisées, de cuir, de terre et de réglisse tout au long de la dégustation. Ce cigare est à savourer après un bon repas, idéal pour les amateurs avertis cherchant une expérience unique.
