After the meal

A cigar with Chichibu 7EVEN Gods of Fortune - Edition 8 Takarabune

Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt, een andere whisky uit Japan.

Cigars
Our choice

Cohiba Siglo II

Cubaanse petit corona van 129 mm, licht en houtig naast de lichte turftoon van Taketsuru.

Why this works together

Een petit corona van 129 mm is smal en kort: er komt weinig tabak tegelijk mee, waardoor de rook licht blijft. Cohiba is grasachtig en houtig, met nauwelijks aarde. Deze whisky heeft zelf al een lichte turf- en rooktoon; een zware sigaar zou daar bovenop komen en het fruit verdringen. Op deze maat blijft de citroen en peer in de geur overeind.

Also good with this whisky

  • Trinidad VigíaKorte, dikke maat van 110 mm, voller van rook maar snel klaar.
  • H. Upmann Coronas JuniorPetit corona van 110 mm, droger van toon, waardoor de kardemom opvalt.
  • Montecristo Petit EdmundoPetit robusto van 110 mm met cacao, dicht bij de donkere chocolade in de afdronk.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
