After-dinner smokes, dessert cigars, nicotine-laced digestifs... whatever you call them, sparking a stogie after a full meal is a fantastic way to finish out the evening. In fact, we here at Klaro are so keen on post-supper smokes that we've put together our own little Food Coma 5-Packfor sharing with all of you.
Inside this bold little bundle, you will find a fistful of tantalizing blends that are best suited for leisurely smoking on a full stomach. Each cigar in this grab bag has special attributes that make it ideal for substituting for that slice of pie or sugary layer cake. Hell, screw it. Why not pair that slice of cake with one of these blends?
So snag a snifter of brandy, pour a snort of port, or perhaps pop out a pint of the imperial black stuff, and end your day the best way imaginable. Just be sure to save us a seat, because we'd love to swing by and swap some stories to pass the time.
French for "the jewel," Le Bijou is a rich, full bodied cigar that doesn't shy away from intense flavors. Habano Oscuro wrapped, and then loaded with a healthy mix of Nicaraguan long-fillers, one can expect tasting notes of dark chocolate covered raisins, leather, and a sweet and salty finish.
The JFR Lunatic Habano is an awesomely large, yet rather stubby cigar with big flavor. That is because it uses Aganorsa tobacco inside, which is well-known for its Cuban qualities. This comes as no surprise, since they use Cuban-seed varietals and traditional Cuban farming and fermentation methods. Tasting notes on this pigtailed little beast include roasted nuts, earth, toast, and light roast coffee, all of which earned this blend a #7 spot in 2018 and a 93-point rating from Cigar Aficionado.
Notable for its innovative use of sweetened tobacco throughout the entire blend, and not just the cap, Las Cañas features a rich Habano Maduro wrapper over an undisclosed binder and filler, which are likely of Nicaraguan origin. The cigar delivers a medium to medium-full strength profile with a natural, balanced sweetness from the enhanced tobacco leaves. This results in tasting notes of coffee, cocoa, and creamy spice, along with a distinct sweetness that isn't too overpowering.
This Nicaraguan puro maduro version of the original Reserva Limitada featuresadeep chocolate wrapper brimming with notes of fudge, vanilla, nuts, and a rounded serving of smooth earthiness. A magnificent smoke with loads of complexity, and a dark fruitiness that is reminiscent of port wine. Easily one of the better dark cigars we sell, without question.
The ADN Dominicano may be light in color, but it is big on flavor, and strength as well. That is because it features traditional Dominican andullo tobacco inside, where leaves are tightly packed into palm pods, and then pressed for months on end until a dense, flavorful paste emerges. The result is a spicy, herbal, almost tea-like cigar with a touch of tropical fruity sweetness and a crunchy graham cracker finish.
