Black Tie Torpedo Cigar Sampler

There is something so elegant and so attractive about black tie outfit that makes the person who wears it the proper way stand apart from the rest of the crowd. With its stark contrast and lack of pattern, no other form of dress is as clean-lined and classic as formal wear. Tuxedos have not only survived more than one hundred years of adversity but evolved into an icon of male elegance in the process. Immortalized by some of the best dressers of the twentieth century from Cole Porter and Noel Coward, to Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and James Bond, black tie is the staple of the modern, urban gentleman.

No wonder, then, that some of the best super-premium cigars come dressed in a “black tie” kind of cigar band and trademark colors. The Black Tie Cigar Sampler is a perfect way to see why.

Playboy Belicoso (6 1/8 x 52) The new Playboy cigars are a richer, a fuller version of the original Playboy by Don Diego brand. These stylish Dominican gems are handmade with a blend of the finest, aged Nicaraguan, Dominican and Peruvian long filler tobaccos, and paired with exquisite Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper leaves. This smoke will bring you an excitement and pleasure that you'll never forget.

Onyx Reserve No. 2 Belicoso (6 1/8 x 52) Highly rated and competitively priced, the Onyx Reserve cigars are a maduro lover's dream. Made with a rich blend of Dominican, Nicaraguan and Peruvian filler leaves, a Nicaraguan binder, and Connecticut broadleaf maduro wrapper, this medium to full bodied smoke is a top of the line maduro. Rich with a toasty aroma, and slightly sweet hints, this flavorful cigar is an experience for every cigar smoker.

Savinelli R&R Series Y Torpedo (6 1/2 x 54) This new line is handcrafted at the Rico y Raro factory in Esteli, Nicaragua with a blend of 100% Nicaraguan-grown Cuban seed long filler tobaccos that is bound with two and a half leaves of ligero and encased in an attractive Ecuador Habano wrapper, resulting in Savinelli’s boldest recipe to date.

Bahia ICON No. 2 Belicoso (6 x 54) Bahia Icon cigars are made in Tabacalera Tambor in Nicaragua but the wrapper-binder-filler information is kept top secret. The cigars are full bodied, rich with hints of coffee, dark tobacco and white pepper. Powerful and complex, yet, very well balanced, the Icon ends with a smooth finish that lingers long after you put your cigar away.

Patel Brothers Torpedo (6 1/4 x 52) The Patel Brothers cigar is a result of a breakthrough project to develop a full body cigar with wrapper tobacco leaves from the lush fields of the Pennsylvania valley. The Patel brothers, Rocky and Nish, dreamed a powerhouse made with a special Nicaraguan filler blend, wrapped in rich and oily, dark broadleaf wrapper that is spicy and robust to boot. Each cigar goes through a multi-step rolling process that includes extensive tasting under Rocky’s watchful eye. The aroma is heavy with medium-to-full body flavors with hints of roasted Java coffee beans that brought memories of the Cohiba Behike that was released at the last cigar festival in Havana.
