   • The Bolívar Cofradía Oscuro stands out for its notes of semi-sweet chocolate, earth and black pepper , which evolve towards softer touches and less cedar in the second half.
   • Domaine Labiette Castille brings dried fruits, plum, vanilla and caramel , along with a long and elegant finish with hints of oak and spices.

2. Complement between flavors :

   • The chocolate and earth notes of the cigar harmonize perfectly with the caramel and oak notes of the Armagnac.
   • The black pepper in the cigar provides an interesting contrast to the softness and sweetness of the Bas-Armagnac fruits, creating a fascinating balance between spicy and sweet.
