The Sobremesa Brûlée Blue Wagashi is a 6 x 50 toro made with an Ecuadorian Connecticut-seed wrapper covering a Mexican San Andrés negro binder and filler tobaccos grown in Nicaragua. The cigar was first released last November as an exclusive for Smoke Inn, the South Florida retailer, as part of a collaboration with Cigar Dojo.
The name Wagashi refers to a type of Japanese dessert; the best-known example in the Western world is probably mochi.
“This moniker always struck me as a perfect one to describe this tweaked version of our limited production Brulée Blue liga,” wrote Saka in a post on his Facebook page. “Not only does its smoke share some common flavor traits with its intricate nuttiness, creamy texture and gentle sweetness, the prensado format of the vitola even takes on the likeness of Yokan, a particular style of Wagashi.”
