Cavalier Genève White Series Salomones: unlit, it releases hints of roasted coffee beans and black pepper. Although this type of size is not designed to reveal much in the cold draw, due to the tapered foot, these Salomones are definitely more fragrant than one might expect. The opening reveals notes of cellulose and earth flanked by white pepper.
The first third confirms the notes of white pepper now followed by earth and seasoned wood. The base is slightly sweet. After the tapered part of the cigar, it changes pace, with a profile that becomes more intense and satisfying. Notes of licorice are added, and spices (white pepper stands out) become more pronounced. Strength stands at a medium level (3/5).
The central section confirms the intense notes of white pepper, which become even more pronounced and culminate in hot spices. There are also aromas of leather and walnut present. Strength grows, reaching a medium-full body (4/5).
In the final third, the leather is confirmed, and the spicy component, however, becomes less pronounced and moves to the background. Approaching the end, notes of balsamic herbs are released, which gradually become more marked. The spices return to the fore, culminating in hot spices. The strength is confirmed (4/5), and the ending is satisfying.
Overall, the Cavalier Genève White Series Salomones give rise to a creamy smoke with a marked balance. The cigar begins “slow”, due to the vitola and then opens and releases a wide range of flavors with good complexity. The evolution is perceptible throughout the entire smoke. Excellent construction.
