One of the most flavorful and exciting releases from Graycliff.
Aficionados are quite familiar with the Graycliff brand. Created by Enrico Garzaroli, founder of the Graycliff hotel and restaurant in Nassau, Bahamas, it is the world's only 5-star brand. To create his coveted cigar line, Enrico teamed up with legendary cigar maker Avelino Lara, Cuba's most accomplished roller who rolled all of Castro's personal cigars. He is also credited as the founder of the Cuban Cohiba brand. With Enrico's palate for fine food and wine and Avelino's extensive experience, the two created Graycliff cigars, which are now among the finest and most expensive cigars on the market.
The cornerstone of the Espresso line is the dark Costa Rican maduro wrapper, which brings this smoke to life. Its robust flavor hits your palate fast and is expertly balanced by a hearty filler. A true connoisseur’s cigar, the Espresso line is intense and consistent from the moment you light it. If you have a discerning palate and are looking for a top notch after-dinner smoke, this is your cigar!
Although the robust flavours with smooth creamy smoke compliment this premium cigar, I was somewhat disappointed. For a cigar to cost 18 a stick I would expect the construction of this cigar to be no less than perfect. This is a good cigar, but only for a much lower price point. Perhaps the rarity of this cigar is the only thing that raises the value and MSRP. Hint, does not pair well with Cognac. Maybe an expresso or even Pino will enhance the flavours of this cigar more.
Truly a wonderful experience. Hands-down, one of the best smokes I've had the pleasure of experiencing.
