First, we have the Domaine Rouge Figurado from Cavalier. This 6 x 52 cigar is said to be the crowing jewel of Cavalier’s body of work. Its tapered shape will give you a 3-part experience of flavor with notes of aromatic cedar and dark cocoa, thanks to the meticulously blended Nicaraguan, Honduran, and Dominican fillers that lie inside the chocolatey Habano Jalapa wrapper.
What makes this cigar truly luxurious is the 24k gold leaf diamond that melds into the ash. This stick is one that is perfect for a celebration or special moment. It serves as a gold standard of craftsmanship (no pun intended). The best way to pair this baby is with a chilled glass of Champagne or a rich artisanal brew. You’ll thank us later.
