Flavors and Aromas: Tequila and Cigar Tasting Among Friends

Updated: Nov 28

Gathering with friends to enjoy a fine cigar and a glass of tequila is much more than just a social event. It's an experience that connects us to our deepest roots, allowing us to disconnect from the daily grind and appreciate life's simple pleasures. There’s a unique kind of magic when good company, exceptional tequila, and fine cigars come together. Recently we gathered for an intimate tasting session featuring Suave Premium Blanco Tequila, perfectly paired with premium cigars. The evening turned into an exploration of flavors, aromas, and camaraderie.



The star of the evening was Suave Premium Blanco, a tequila that stands out for its smoothness and high-quality craftsmanship. Suave Premium is produced using 100% Blue Weber agave from the rich fields of Jalisco, Mexico. Its 2018 edition is known for capturing the essence of its terroir and the mastery of traditional tequila-making techniques.


To elevate the experience, each guest selected a cigar from a curated selection. The smoothness of the Suave Blanco paired beautifully with the earthy and nutty notes of the cigars, creating a balance between the drink's citrusy brightness and the tobacco’s richness.

The act of lighting a cigar and savoring a fine tequila transports us to a world of sensations, aromas, and flavors that allow us to disconnect from the daily grind and enjoy the present moment. The intense aroma of tobacco, combined with the smooth, slightly sweet notes of agave, creates a unique synergy that stimulates the senses and uplifts the spirit.


To elevate the tasting experience, the evening featured carefully selected cigars, each chosen to complement the unique characteristics of Suave Premium Blanco. Here are some of the standout pairings:


Montecristo No. 4

Smooth to medium-bodied, with notes of wood, nut, and a light creaminess.

Its balance and subtle complexity highlight the sweet and citrusy notes of the tequila without overpowering them.


Cohiba Siglo II

Smooth to medium, with hints of honey, fresh herbs, and wood.

The herbal undertones of the Cohiba perfectly mirror the clean and crisp nature of Suave Blanco, elevating both.


Partagás Serie D No. 5

Medium to full-bodied, with notes of leather, cocoa, and spices.

For those seeking contrast, this robust cigar adds depth and intensity, balancing the light and silky profile of the tequila.




As the evening progressed, the group exchanged stories, laughter, and reflections on the pairing. Each sip and puff seemed to carry its own moment of discovery, as friends debated their favorite flavor notes and the interplay between the tequila and cigars.

At La Casa del Habano, we offer a curated selection of cigars, including iconic brands like Montecristo and Romeo y Julieta, to help you find the perfect pairing. We invite you to explore this world of sensations. Sharing a cigar and tequila with friends is more than just a social gathering; it's an experience that strengthens bonds, relieves stress, and allows you to savor life to the fullest.








Suave Premium Blanco Tequila proved to be the perfect choice for such an occasion, delivering on its promise of quality and sophistication. Its refined character made it an ideal companion to cigars, creating a memorable evening of flavor exploration and connection.


Whether you’re a tequila connoisseur or simply enjoy fine spirits with friends, Suave Premium Blanco is a must-try for your next tasting session. Pair it with a great cigar, and you’ll find yourself immersed in a truly remarkable experience.
