Gilbert de Montsalvat Anniversary Salomones - Blue Smoke Spirit - Cigar subscription and gifts - delivery in Switzerland

Gilbert de Montsalvat Anniversary Salomones

A majestic-looking Gilbert in the Salomones format, with the slightly sweet flavours of dried fruit and bitter almond, underlined by a hint of cocoa, to accompany you for more than an hour of pleasure.

In our first selection, we offered you its little brother, but now it's time to give pride of place to a format not usually found in our civets. This salomone is over 19 cm long and will need a little patience to be smoked.

Patience, yes, but indulgence even more. Make the most of a fine late-winter afternoon to indulge in this marvel, which we owe to the flavour enthusiasts at Royal Cigar Company who, to celebrate their 20th anniversary, have worked with Gilbert de Montsalvat to concoct a cigar that will leave a lasting impression on the minds (and palates) of the lucky few who manage to get their hands on one of the 2,000 pieces produced.

 

Tasting note

Notes

Flavours of roasted beans and almonds fill the mouth on the first puff. The generous, full-bodied smoke that emanates from this module also brings hints of honey. The burn is excellent and the draw fairly smooth.
Don't be fooled by the smooth, creamy start, but you'll soon feel a hint of black pepper, which will enhance your enjoyment.

The cigar anecdote

Salomonesa format worthy of the great kings. A stature that commands respect and refined elegance.
