Toscano Il Moro: An Exclusive and Luxurious Cigar
The Toscano Il Moro, a limited edition handmade Italian cigar, is the king of Toscano cigars. Produced only once a year, and only in small quantities, the cigars are hand rolled by chosen few cigar rollers (“sigaraie”). At 9 inches in length, these cigars are 40% longer and 25% wider than the average Toscano cigar. This exceptional cigar is sold individually with each cigar presented in a carefully hand-crafted wooden box. The Il Moro is a rare collector's item that is only made available to the public during the Christmas season. Lucky for you, you can buy Toscano Il Moro cigars at ItalianSmokes all year.
Tastes of Il Moro
The Il Moro smoking experience is intense - if it is your first time smoking a Toscano cigar, we recommend starting with one of our best sellers such as Toscano Classico, Toscano Antico, or any of the more mild Toscanello cigars. Il Moro cigars are made with a blend of Kentucky and Italian tobacco. This one of a kind cigar features a balanced and satiating taste with rich aromas of leather, dried fruit, espresso, and aromatic wood. To enhance the intense smoking pleasure of the Il Moro, pair it with a vintage Chianti that perfectly complements its flavor.
Chianti Wine: A Tuscan Staple
Chianti is a decadent red blend from Tuscany, and is probably the most recognized Italian wine. The majority of the Chianti blend is formed by Sangiovese grapes. It is a thin skinned grape that creates a brilliant ruby red color with slight flecks of bright burnt orange. In addition to the Sangiovese, Chianti may contain other wine grapes such as Canaiolo, Colorino, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. Genuine Chianti will not contain any white grapes.
An Exquisite Pairing
Consider matching your Il Moro cigar with vintage Chianti such as the 2007 Chianti Classico DOCG Castello di Brolio by Ricasoli or the Verrazzano Chianti Classico Riserva 2010. The notes of chocolate, coffee, and spice in chianti melt on the palate with the unforgettable, bold flavor of the Il Moro. The two blend perfectly together for a rich, indulgent experience.
