The second series from Tonio's Tabaco is a successful sequel in every respect. Like the “Live Your Dreams” series, the “xReLaXx” cigars are also made by hand at Plasencia in Nicaragua. Compared to the first series, the “xReLaXx” is a little more reserved, but is no less captivating to the palate. Cocoa and coffee aromas are exciting counterparts to the woody and earthy basic aroma that is constantly present. The taste of almonds is also noticeable at times. A smoke with rough edges that we love.
This is due to a composition of Dominican, Honduran and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos, which are covered by two binders from Indonesia and Nicaragua. The cigars get their dark color from the somewhat rough Mexican San Andrés wrapper.
The cigars alone would be reason enough to try this series because of their excellent taste. The special packaging should certainly provide an additional incentive to buy. The cigars are delivered in a hand-painted, solid, shiny gold glass in the shape of a skull. Please note that the lid does not have a seal and the glass cannot therefore be recommended as a humidor.
