Name
Cao Osa Sol
Description
The select Honduran wrapper's oils give CAO OSA Sol a uniquely robust, earthy flavor; the Nicaragua, Honduras & Broadleaf combo inside sends the aroma off the charts. We like it with a brown ale, to bring out the finer nuances.

Diamond Crown
Description
We dug deep in the archives and found a wheated bourbon match for Diamond Crown, a very full-flavored Dominican - but if craft brew is your calling, the rare tobaccos inside the Connecticut wrapper will likely benefit from pairing with a smooth IPA.

La Fontana Vintage
Description
La Fontana Vintage offers a mild-to-medium mix of premium Honduran tobaccos, finished with a sweetened cap. A heavier beer will easily overpower it - so take the sweetness as your cue, and pair with a Belgian ale for a citrusy sugar rush.

Tatuaje Black
Description
Fair warning: Tatuaje Black is a VERY full blend of Nicaraguan tobaccos in a Criollo wrapper...smoking dark but tangy-sweet, we think a hearty ale or a fresh-poured stout will get your taste buds' attention when paired with these cigars.
