Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Sombremesa Brulee Toro

A medium-bodied smoke with mouthwatering sweetness accented by warm earthy notes. Its light-tan Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper sheaths a Mexican San Andres binder and a Nicaraguan filler. Handmade in Nicaragua, the Sobremesa Brulee Toro offers a pleasurable smoking experience that’s perfect for a special occasion or as a solitary self-indulgence.

Sobremesa, “over the table”, has no precise English translation, perhaps because there is no cultural equivalent in the US. It is an idiom used among the Latin culture to describe the leisurely time spent tableside after you have finished dining, but before you rise. It is the experience of lingering casually with family and friends in conversation, relaxing, drinking, smoking, and enjoying each other’s company. Sobremesa is one of life’s simplest, yet greatest pleasures.

The Brûlée is a variation of the core Sobremesa liga in which the Pennsylvania Seedleaf ligero has been removed, the Condega Seco has been increased and the Capa is now a top shelf grade of Ecuador Connecticut Shade. The result is a milder, even smoother adaptation of the Sobremesa blend that continues to retain its wonderfully complex flavors and aromas.

The Sobremesa Brûlée Blue is a special limited production of our Brûlée liga that is crafted a touch stronger and then aged a full year.

A creamy liga with softer flavours of cedar, caramel and café, which are complimented by its inherent sweetness being allowed to blossom on the palate and nose – a nuttiness is also apparent within this blend.
