OBAN 14
Look: golden yellow, with amber reflects.
On the nose: liqueur scents, which are particularly perceptible. Notes of malt, ripe fruits (pear) and hints of vanilla.
On the palate: the base is sweet and accompanies smokey aromas, with a slight spiciness. There are also honey and plum perceptible.
Finish: discretely extended, with oaky and balsamic notes.

 

CIGARS FOR PAIRING
Vegas Robaina Famosos: the cigar and the spirit marry to perfection, seeing how similar the aromatic palates are. The flavors exalt and the binomial gives place to a simple and satisfying pairing. In detail, the balsamic notes melt together, refreshing the palate continuously.  vegas-robaina
Villa Zamorano Expreso: the Oban meets this petit robusto, filling and completing the aromatic palate of the small Expreso. The sweetness of the Oban softens the bitter vein of the cigar, creating a nice contrast. The result is a satisfying and satiating marriage, that can be enjoyed also in short pieces of time, seen the length of the cigar is only 90mm.villa-zamorano-expreso
