This week on Flavor Odyssey, we continue our journey into emerging cigar styles. On this episode, your hosts Robby Ras and Randy Griggs explore Connecticut Shade-wrapped cigars combined with maduro binders. While this style certainly isn’t new, it’s gained a great deal of momentum with releases such as the Dunbarton Sobremesa Brûlée, Tatuaje Negociant, and our own Diet Sarsaparilla. The sweetness of the maduro binder might compliment the buttery/bitter notes of the CT wrapper, but what drink will round out the pairing? Tune in and find out.
