Quick Smoke: Paul Garmirian Symphony 20 Salomones
6 Mar 2011
Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,†“hold,†or “sell.â€
Last year, P.G. Cigars celebrated it’s 20th anniversary and introduced the limited edition Symphony to commemorate the occasion. Originally introduced in a Toro, the blend will soon be expanded to include a Short Robusto and this large Salomones size that will sell for around $20. Wrapped in an oily, medium brown wrapper, the Salomones has an elegant presentation. Roasted earthy notes dominate and are complemented by a subtle combination of oak, molasses sweetness, and wine-like tannins. The expertly constructed blend bounces around from full-bodied to medium and back, making for an entertaining two hours.
Verdict = Buy.
