Garo Adamas is another one of the spectacular boutique blends from this unique company.
Smokers can expect a medium bodied journey starting with a distinct spiciness, moving through coffee-like notes mingled with nuts and leather. This then culminates in mocha and exotic floral notes. This beautifully nuanced finish leaves the smoker desiring just a bit more, even after an extended smoking session.
With attention to detail, the Adamas is notable for its use of an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, known for its oily sheen that comes to prominence in the second half of the smoke, and a Dominican Olor binder that holds together a filler blend of Dominican Seco/Lijero and Corojo. This combination ensures a smooth draw, consistent white ash, and a slow burn, offering notes of walnut and a subtle sweetness reminiscent of honey.

With attention to detail, the Exclusivo is a distinguished cigar containing a unique blend. Comprising 100% Nicaraguan tobacco, this meticulously crafted smoke boasts a wrapper, binder, and filler all sourced from the rich Nicaraguan soil.

Expertly manufactured in Nicaragua at the renowned TABSA facility, this Viaje promises aficionados an exceptional journey through the nuanced flavors of premium Nicaraguan tobacco.
Cigar Aficionado rates this gem a respectable 90. Their description of this medium to full bodied gem is spot on. “Solid to the touch, this toro is packed with tobacco but draws and burns evenly. Up-front earthiness fades to the background for notes of oak, chocolate and baking spices.”
With this in mind, the “Leaded” version listed here uses Medio tiempo leaves. This factor gives it a richer and more full bodied flavor. Either one will prove to be another satisfying smoking experience from this great company.
