TOBACCO TASTING CLASSES

[El Presidente]

 

What  a great idea by J.C. Newman and Co.  This would be fun to do if done properly. 

 

J.C. Newman Cigar Co. is launching a new experience for visitors: a tobacco tasting class.

Would love to do something like this.

This is great. 

In past I have attended to several tasting of only Seco, Volado and Capa from Cuba.

But something more specific as JCNewman is proposing is really good.

Need great contacts with big producers in all Central America to have a full variety of tobaccos to taste.

That's pretty cool, hope more dates popup! I have some free time in April...

Cool idea / program.

Made me think - how interesting would it be if the lineup was entirely Cuban? Maybe 40-50 short samples. I’d be very excited to give that a whirl. 

edit - for context, I feel there is lots talked about Cuban rollers and much less about their blends and blenders. There’s a mystique of sorts around Cuban tobacco for the average punter (like myself).

I would prefer the FOH/Nudies version

Tour of Fabrica 5 .....a tobacco tasting with hamlet followed by a long lunch with Rob and a champagne tasting led by Ken. That sounds like one hell of a day.

Very cool.  There was something similar around 2012/13. The Tesa Taster box.  A B&M out of Chicago had these made up. It was a sampler of 6 cigars with "puro" rolls of various tobaccos that made them up.

Definitely something I would love to experience!
