Habanos suggests pairing with spirits such as rums and 8-year-old whiskies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow It Smokes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Our reading draws on the Habanos tasting note. The first third shows the polish of that dark brown wrapper, with an open, easy draw and an even burn line from the start. Through the middle, the 53 ring keeps the smoke full while the light grey ash holds firm and compact. The strength reaches medium to full as the cigar moves into its final third, over a total of roughly 40 minutes. Habanos does not list individual flavours, so we describe the structure and leave the palate to you; an aged rum or a whisky of around eight years suits it well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlend Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brillantes uses the Venerables factory format, 53 ring gauge by 128 mm. Habanos describes it as an exclusive and limited edition, each cigar made totally by hand with long filler from wrapper, binder and filler leaves selected in Vuelta Abajo. It brings the Montecristo character together with the celebration of the Chinese New Year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"border:1px solid #C9D9D0; border-top:1px solid #C4502F; padding:16px; margin:18px 0; background:#E8F0EC;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0E4632; margin-top:0;\"\u003eReserve at Habanora\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eReserve this cigar online, on WhatsApp or by phone, then collect and pay at our boutique at Yansoon 9, Downtown Dubai.
