Joya de Nicaragua Antaño CT Robusto
With its soft and silky Connecticut wrapper, the Antaño CT Robusto may seem milder than the bold classics of the Antaño series. But make no mistake: this cigar is a paradoxical and masterful creation that perfectly illustrates what a cigar with character can offer.
With medium to full strength, the Antaño CT combines vibrant smoothness with intense spicy notes. This captivating Robusto strikes a harmonious balance between the creamy sweetness of its Connecticut wrapper and the robust spices of Nicaragua.
Tasting notes
Peppery and spicy notes are revealed as soon as the cigar is lit. The profile remains intensely peppery until halfway through the cigar, where it gradually evolves towards creamier and toasted flavours, offering a balanced experience.
Pairing
We enjoyed it with some sweet treats in the afternoon. Quarkini from Zenhäusern, chocolate shortbread biscuits, and a taste of Christmas with a gingerbread man. In short, sweet things suit it well!
The cigar anecdote
An excellent construction that will give us compact ash and a good volume of voluptuous smoke.
