Slow ritual
Cigar room and leave the world outside.
Devote yourself to the pleasure of smoking. Davidoff stated that "the cigar contains the promise of a totally pleasurable experience" adding that the pleasure from smoking a cigar is indefinable, skimming the mystical. The mystery is in the rhythm. Slow gestures. Proud gestures. Restrained gestures. Indispensable for rebalancing your emotions. And your thoughts. To rediscover your own pace. With satisfaction. Unhurried. Starting slowly and in moderation. Until your enthusiasm is aroused. Developing a passion for it. Bordering on worship.
Cigar room to enter another world.
Brand. Length. Diameter. Colour. Whole or cut in half. King Edward VII of England smoked 22cm cigars with a 5cm diameter. Emperor Wilhelm II of Germany preferred slim cigars instead. Mario Soldati loved to split his Toscano cigar in half with his hands. And then the mini cigar, the sophisticated cigarillo, with or without filter. Aromatic Coffee. Vanilla. Aniseed. Depending on your whim.
Our advice.
Take a break. Smoke a good cigar. Have a glass of rum. Have some chocolate. And savour the moment.
