It’s a possibility that the El Viejo Continente Classic Robustom may be my new favourite cigar. I haven’t been as excited to see how a cigar ages in a long time
When I fancied a full flavoured cigar that would give 2 hours of pleasure, I grabbed the Brick House Robusto. Smooth, chocolatey and nutty it didn’t disappoint
Originating from colonial Burma in the 1920s, the Pegu Club cocktail is just the citrusy, refreshing shaken gin cocktail you’d expect from a hot, humid climate
Don’t let the stubby size of the Skull 77 El Nino cigar fool you. It uses the same blend as its big brothers the El Diablo and El Unico and packs the same punch
Whilst not full of complicated flavours, the Alec Bradley Project 40 Robusto is a smooth, creamy cigar that slows the world down letting you savour every moment
A variation on the Vesper Martini, Bobbo’s Bride is a cocktail that uses both vodka and gin. This is a beautiful balance of sweet, fruity, sour and strong.
The Quai D’Orsay No. 50 is one of those Cuban cigars I knew about but due to the light wrapper, had never smoked. It turned out to be a richly flavoured smoke.
Plasencia are known for their premium Nicaraguan cigars. The Alma Fuente Sixto II is noteable not only for its hexagonal shape, but also being an amazing smoke.
The Apricot Cosmo is a very nice variation on the traditional Cosmopolitan. By replacing the traditional triple sec with apricot brandy I had a richly fruity drink to toast in 2021
