Casdagli Brothers of the Sabre Epicurist Figurado
Founded by Jeremy Casdagli, Casdagli Cigars draws inspiration from historical culture to create a series of high-end cigars rich in stories. The Brothers of the Sabre series pays tribute to legendary generals of the Napoleonic Wars who were not only heroic in battle but also avid tobacco enthusiasts.

Flavor Evolution in Three Acts
First Third: Cold draw offers aromas of cedar and nuts. Upon lighting, the smoke is delicate and smooth. Toasted nuts and a creamy texture appear first, accompanied by gentle oak and sweetness, presenting an elegantly refined opening.
Second Third: Flavors gradually unfold, with cream and toasted nuts becoming more prominent, and cedar blending naturally with subtle sweetness. The overall palate is rounded and silky smooth, with excellent balance and a long, pleasant finish.
Final Third: The latter half maintains excellent stability, with nutty and creamy aromas reaching their peak, while delicate oak and sweetness provide an elegant conclusion. The smoke remains consistently cool and smooth, ending naturally with a refined and rich aftertaste.
