Press Release: Davidoff Ladies‘ Masterclass in the Caribbean - Enjoying cigars at sunset



Basel/Altos de Chavón (D.R.), March 2015.

The first Ladies‘ Masterclass in the Caribbean was held by Oettinger Davidoff AG and Casa de Campo, Premier Resorts & Hotels, on 23 February 2015 in Altos de Chavón, La Romana, Dominican Republic.

During the champagne reception, the Dominican Trio “Grupo Bien”, sang the most popular rancheros of the island and welcomed the ladies who wanted to learn more about cigars at first hand. In the light of a magnificent sunset, the 40 invited señoras gathered on the terrace of the Café Marietta in the pituresque Altos de Chavón for the pleasant and content-rich master class, which was held under the motto "Time Beautifully Filled".

Vincent Krembel, International Brand Ambassador of Oettinger Davidoff AG, demonstrated the dos and don'ts of cigar enjoyment during the sensory soirée - from selecting the cigar, lighting and cutting it and to how to enjoy it. The programme also included a brief introduction of the process of tobacco production, from the seeding and harvesting to the blending and rolling of a premium cigar. This was followed by tapas and a cigar tasting session, allowing the participants to finish the evening with Caribbean flair.

"The Davidoff Ladies‘ Masterclass is aimed at modern women who want to discover the world of cigars. Women who like to spend time together and enjoy asking questions about cigars without any inhibitions. Whether in London, Brussels, Vienna, or here in the Dominican Republic, we are increasingly noticing from the increasing demand, that enjoying cigars is no longer exclusively a man's privilege," confirms Paloma Szathmáry, Senior Vice President Corporate Communications of Oettinger Davidoff AG.

Those who had acquired a taste were able to continue the evening's rich gourmet journey by visiting the tobacco fields and Davidoff's production premises.

Amazing Camacho Facebook Post

I was truly humbled to see this  Camacho Cigars  Facebook post yesterday. Thank you!

Eight O'Clock Coffee The Original

This sample of Eight O'Clock Coffee , "The Original", came right off the supermarket shelf the other day. It's a medium roast blend that included a large volume of broken and partial beans. Actually, I was surprised by the volume of broken beans as I poured each sample into the grinder. When the bag was opened, to the nose there were rich aromas of toast and coffee, while the pour-over aromas were a mix of cocoa and warm bread. I brewed and sampled four cups of The Original to be sure of my tasting notes. On the Eight O'Clock web site they list this coffee as "sweet, fruity and well balanced." Like most other coffee reviews that's not exactly what I found. In my samples there were semi-sweet flavors of toast, nuts and earth, with a hint of cocoa as the coffee cooled. I found the coffee clean and well balanced with a medium bodied, slightly dry mouth feel. Overall, The Original, from Eight O'Clock coffee brewed a flavorful rewarding cup

Tryst No. 2 Robusto Brandy E-Cigar

Featuring e-juice made in the USA, these  Tryst  e-cigars are a pretty sweet deal. The No. 2 Robusto Brandy is another great example of a cigarette alternative that give me cigar-like satisfaction indoors or wherever I can't smoke a real cigar. Like the last Tryst reviews, I've been puffing on the No. 2 the past two days while writing. Other than its brandy flavor, this Brandy model is just like the the other No. 2's. The tapered head makes it easy to hold hands-free between your teeth, the wrapper is durable showing no signs of wear, it produces a large volume of vapor and the brandy flavored e-juice tastes fantastic.  You probably know I'm not much of a flavored cigar person, but these American made e-juices from Tryst have fantastic flavor, this brandy is really close to tasting like brandy. I've tried other flavored e-cigarette products in the past and the flavors don't compare at all to the Tryst e-cigar flavors. Add together the great taste, the
