Dubbel Biatch Mayo - Agusto



Thanks to school holiday week, I had time to sit down in the sun and present this batch.

I'll add that the Ramon Allones Superiores i was enjoying came on with some light medium body of mushrooms, steak juices, cedar, finishing with cream and touch of maple syrup sweetness, and some cinnamon and hint of cumin on the retrohale (and white pepper when over-puffed). A wonderful cigar.

The Oban single malt was the perfect match for it, full of honey and cloves and balanced by a lovely biting acidity with a touch of citrus that cut through the whole, perfect for that 11am slot.

The little Monte Media Coronas are from a March '17 box, similar to the H Upmann Regalias (Feb'17). The Rafael Gonzalez Perlas are May 18, and Monte no.4s March 18 - and they both taste like it although the blend is also a bit stronger for them.

Enjoy.

a beaut box of RG Perlas, beware they are little flavour bombs at this point

Ramon Allones Superiores LCDH, wish we had more of these

Oban was the winning match on the day.
