Flavor Profile

• The Tubos format helps preserve flavour and aroma, making it portable and ready for immediate enjoyment.

Ideal Occasion & Pairing

This cigar is suitable for daytime or early evening smoking when you want something refined but not heavy:

• Length & format make it great for about 30‑45 minutes of smoking.

• Pair with a light espresso, a mellow white rum, or a smooth whisky—not something overly strong, so the cigar’s subtlety is appreciated.

Buying & Storage Tips

• Verify authenticity (look for the official Habanos seal, proper box code, and original Tubos packaging).

• Store in a humidor at ~65‑68% RH and ≈18–20°C for best preservation.

• Though smaller in size, the cigar benefits from proper humidification to maintain the draw and flavour profile.

• Since it’s a smaller ring gauge, make sure the draw is acceptable—some aficionados note smaller formats can be stricter on draw than larger ones.
