| TASTING NOTE: As its name suggests, the Cigar Reserve is crafted with the stogie-smoker in mind, boasting more perceptible alcohol and a rounder, more fiery texture. Medium orange in colour, it offers gorgeous scents of intense caramel, toffee, orange peel, red fruits, and lots of spice. On the palate: full, delicious, with immediate appeal. Americanized in some respects, in that the caramel flavour and rounder fruits are much more apparent. Still of exquisite craftspersonship and style, though.
