Saint Luis Rey Titan

The Saint Luis Rey Titan opens with a robust medium-to-full-bodied profile, delivering a deep mix of sweet cedar, dark cocoa, and roasted coffee accented by a touch of molasses sweetness. Early puffs reveal notes of dried plum, toasted almond, and light leather, while the retrohale adds layers of black pepper, nutmeg, and a trace of clove that warm the palate without overwhelming. As the second third develops, flavors of dark caramel, marzipan, and seasoned oak emerge, enriching the cigar’s core and smoothing its spice. The final third deepens with earthy espresso, charred cedar, and a lingering bittersweet chocolate finish, leaving a bold yet balanced impression.

The construction is superb, featuring a smooth, oily Cuban wrapper seamlessly applied over select binder and filler tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo region. The Titan vitola is rolled with consistent firmness, a perfect triple cap, and flawless seam work. The cold draw offers aromas of cocoa husk, cedar, and dried fig, while ignition produces dense, aromatic smoke through a smooth, resistance-balanced draw. The burn line remains sharp and even throughout, requiring little to no correction, and the ash forms tight, marbled stacks that hold securely.

An ideal whisky pairing is Aberlour A’Bunadh, whose cask-strength sherried richness of dark fruits, toffee, and warm spice complements the cigar’s cocoa, nut, and oak tones while amplifying its retrohale complexity.
