Patoro Serie P Jeroboam

Patoro… A brand that Blue Smoke has had its eye on since its inception. We were lucky enough to get our hands on these cigar gems, much to the delight of your taste buds, following a meeting with Pablo Richard and Philip Leliuc in Dortmund. We chose a must-have line, the P series, in a superb format.

Tasting notes

Thanks to a higher proportion of younger tobacco, aged 3 to 4 years, this line offers a variety of refined and rich aromas. It begins with woody and earthy flavours, then evolves towards spicy nuances with a subtle sweetness. As you smoke it, the cigar becomes increasingly complex, offering an experience full of flavour, rich in character and aromas.

Subtle roasted cocoa notes. Notes of nougatine and praline fill the palate.

Pairing

A latte macchiato to bring even more smoothness to this cigar.

Momentum

Everywhere! A cigar for social occasions, but also a solo pleasure, accompanied only by a cup of coffee.

The cigar anecdote

Pablo Richard (left) grew up in Biel. He was introduced to the world of cigars at a very early age, as his grandfather was Ernst Schneider, who died in 2009 and was the head of the Oettinger Davidoff Group.

About Patoro

Having gained extensive experience at Davidoff, Patrick Jonas Martin founded Patoro in 2001.

A subtle combination of his first name and ‘Oro’ (Spanish for ‘gold’), the new brand aims to be an ambassador for the richness and traditions of the Dominican Republic.

Patoro has been built on an artisanal approach and a meticulous attention to detail. Patrick has always focused on small-batch production of cigars crafted from aged tobaccos, using leaves selected for their exceptional quality.

These limited production volumes mean the brand remains somewhat under the radar for now, allowing Patrick and his team to offer cigars with perfect rolling and balanced flavours.

In 2014, Pablo Richard (the grandson of Dr Ernst Schneider, former owner and Chairman of the Oettinger Davidoff Group) decided to leave surgery to pursue his greatest passion – cigars – and joined the wonderful Patoro venture.
