El Septimo Michelangelo
We’re off to seventh heaven with the El Septimo Michelangelo, a cigar that captivates from the very first glance.
The wrapper is superb: flawless, rich and a beautiful warm brown, its smooth, well-finished appearance makes it a delight to smoke. The construction is exemplary, ensuring a pleasant feel in the hand and a perfectly controlled draw.
Tasting notes
From the moment it is lit, the initial flavour is bold and expressive, characterised by intense chocolate notes that create a lingering indulgence throughout the smoking experience.
This Michelangelo unfolds a rich and harmonious flavour profile, dominated by notes of nuts – primarily hazelnut – caramel and coffee. These flavours remain consistent, offering a linear yet extremely pleasant tasting experience for lovers of praline-style profiles.
It is not until the final third that spicy notes emerge, enhancing the roasted coffee notes.
The smoke is remarkably dense, thick and pure white, enveloping the palate with an almost creamy smoothness. The smooth draw adds to the pleasure of the smoking experience, confirming the high quality of this cigar’s construction.
El Septimo Michelangelo does not rely on evolving complexity, but instead offers a rich and generous sensory experience. Indulgent, charming and perfectly crafted, it is sure to appeal to those seeking a cigar with a smooth, praline-like profile, ideal for a moment of pure pleasure.
A cigar-related anecdote
The Michelangelo pays homage to Michelangelo’s ‘The Creation of Adam’ and symbolises the second day of creation, when God created the heavens.
