Escobar Cigars launched circa four years ago and
have made many waves since. So much so that the
famous Grammy award-winning recording artist
“Nas” joined as a co-owner. The Double-Figurado
starts out with aromas of pepper, earth, wood,
and espresso. A herbal note is added in the second
half, which turns balsamic towards the end.

Chateau Diadem is a new cigar brand, with the
production located in Navarette, in the Dominican
Republic. Among their cigars, we picked the Toro
size. It delivers notes of precious wood, leather,
and nuts, with a mix of white and green pepper in
the background. Earth, walnut, and vegetal aromas
are added in the second part.
