El Rey Del Mundo Demi Tasse

HISTORY

In 1882 the Antonio Allones factory, which had been making Havanas for over 30 years, decided to launch a new brand to reflect premium quality at an achievable price. With great confidence but little modesty it was named ‘El Rey del Mundo’ – The King of the World. It proved to be a winner. This success lives on to this day in a small selection of Havanas renowned for their light to medium flavour and consistency. Both sizes contain a blend of filler and binder tobacco from the Vuelta Abajo zone and are made by the ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade technique.

A fine example of the smallest format made by hand in Cuba. Tiny but tasty. A wonderful brief taste of Havana.

TASTING NOTES

Expect gentle flavours of sweet cedar, roasted nuts, and a distinctive biscuity or bready note. It maintains a consistent, light sweetness from start to finish, with a very smooth and soft smoke texture.

A quick smoke that pairs perfectly with a Short, Strong Espresso, a Black Coffee, or a Dry Aperitif (like a Fino Sherry) to complement its nutty, bready notes.
