Tasting notes

The Nicarao Furia Tisiphone showcases a sublime velvet texture with a slightly oily Nicaragua wrapper, ensuring a firm grip. Its appearance is accentuated by the absence of a traditional band, replaced by a subtle orange cotton thread. In the light, its Colorado-Rosado reveals a play of warm reflections that immediately draws the eye. The delicate veins of the tobacco testify to a beautiful quality of assembly.

Upon first contact, the Tisiphone expresses itself with intriguing aromas. Pre-light, you perceive sweet notes of nuts mingled with hints of leather. Once lit, it begins with an earthy note, underscored by nuances of spices and pepper that discreetly invite themselves in the retrohale. This complex ensemble quickly blossoms, promising a rich aromatic experience.

On the palate, the development unfolds harmoniously. The first third offers a blend of sweet coffee and chocolate, revealing a delicate balance between the rich aromas and the spices. As you progress into the second third, nuances of hazelnut and earth emerge, almost coppery. However, this gradient must contend with a slight monotony, as the cigar sometimes remains on a less evolving framework.

The finish is marked by a beautiful length in mouth, where the persistence of earthy and slightly bitter flavors is felt. The balance between strength and sweetness is well achieved, making this Nicarao Furia Tisiphone unique in its kind, although a certain complexity could be expected to confirm its potential.

The Tisiphone will ideally find its place during a relaxing evening moment. Paired with a glass of peated whisky, it will envelop you with its aromas, creating a perfect interaction between alcohol and tobacco for a truly exhilarating experience.

Community impressions

Enthusiasts of this cigar highlight a beautiful tasting experience with prominent aromas of coffee and chocolate, but lament a lack of evolution throughout the thirds. While the Tisiphone showcases interesting notes and good construction, it could benefit from greater complexity to stand out more in its category.
