Cavalier Geneve Salamones Black (10) PK

Cavalier Genève Black Series II Salamones brings Cavalier’s old-school maduro blend into one of the most elegant vitolas in the catalogue — a long, slender format that lets the dark, oily Mexican San Andrés wrapper carry the experience. The Black Series II is Cavalier’s take on the classic maduro: rich, complex, and medium in strength, box-pressed across the standard range but stretched out here into a graceful Salamones that shows the wrapper at its most expressive. The signature 24-karat gold-foil diamond glints on every band.

Expect a medium-bodied profile with earth, cocoa, and cedar at the core, joined by roasted coffee, black pepper, and a subtle sweetness from the maduro wrapper, all resolving into a smooth, well-balanced finish.

This Salamones measures 191mm with a 42 ring gauge, hand-rolled at Cavalier’s own Fábrica Centroamericana de Tabaco in Honduras with a dark, oily Mexican San Andrés wrapper over a Nicaraguan Habano binder and Dominican and Nicaraguan long-fillers, finished with the signature 24-karat gold-foil diamond. Presented in a pack of 10 cigars.

Ideal with an aged rum, a bourbon, or a medium-bodied red wine — also pairs excellently with a rich espresso or a piece of dark chocolate to match its earthy, cocoa-driven character.
