This Month’s Tasting Hour

Join us for an evening of flavour, conversation, and discovery as we revisit some exceptional cigars and welcome a few special guests.


Custom Rolled Cigars – The Big Smoke Festival

We begin with a rare treat: a return to last year’s Big Smoke festival with a of custom rolled cigars. Crafted by hand at the event, these unique smokes capture the artistry and spontaneity of live rolling—each one offering its own character, depth, and story. Expect a journey through evolving flavours, from earthy undertones to subtle spice, as no two are quite the same.

Oscar 2012 Red Maduro

Our featured cigar this month is the Oscar 2012 Red Maduro—a rich, medium-to-full bodied smoke known for its depth and balance. Wrapped in a dark Mexican San Andrés leaf, it delivers bold notes of espresso, dark chocolate, and warming spice, with a long, satisfying finish that rewards a slower pace.

We’re pleased to welcome Tim Lewis from the Somerset Prostate Support Association for an open and important conversation on men’s health. Insightful, informative, and relaxed—this is a chance to engage, ask questions, and support awareness in a welcoming setting.
