Izambar Swindon

Balanced and creamy. These two adjectives alone could characterise this cigar. On lighting, the first wisps of smoke are already dense, filling the room with the first aromas of earth and leather.

For this latest creation, Edmond et Antonio once again have a wonderful surprise in store. Wrapped in a beautiful Ecuadorian cloak, we find Nicaraguan tobaccos from the Jalapa and Condega regions.

First, the visual. Like the brand's other cigars, it has a large ring with a steampunk look. It's an heirloom of Izambar Brunel, the great English engineer of the early 19th century. The codes of previous vitolas are respected, with a dark, oily wrapper that already makes us want to light it on fire.

Tasting note

Notes

Balanced and creamy. These two adjectives alone could characterise this cigar. On lighting, the first wisps of smoke are already dense, filling the room with the first aromas of earth and leather.
Like Brunel's plans, everything here is meticulous. The combustion is perfect and the ash holds well. The increasingly complex aromas bring notes of spice and fruit.

Pairing

Paired with a stout, this cigar will take you back in time, and you might even hear the whistle of a steam locomotive in the distance.

The cigar anecdote

Swindon station in England was one of the first places where one of the first bar 'counters' was set up, under the direction of Izambar Brunel himself. Cheers!



Izambar

"Isambard Kingdom Brunel was instrumental in the construction of the tunnel under the Thames in London (the first tunnel to pass under a river).

Izambar takes its name from this great visionary of the early 19th century, and gives pride of place to his Victorian-era world. Each of the brand's cigars proudly sports a large, colourful ring adorned with mechanical gears.

A passionate lover of fine smokes for years, and a lifelong graphic designer and interior architect, Edmond teamed up with Antonio and together they launched the brand's first cigar in 2016 after more than a year of back and forth with Nicaragua. It's a double robusto with gourmet dimensions. Its name - Izambar Kingdom.

Today, the brand has expanded to include a range of modules (gordo, perfecto, double corona, etc.) which we are delighted to share with you.
