Introducing the Napoleon (Royal Salomon) Maduro, a cigar that exemplifies the rich complexity of Napoleon Bonaparte, the renowned French military commander whose influence reshaped the very fabric of European politics. As Zaya Younan’s favorite Emperor, this cigar was dedicated an impressive 9 inches with a 55-ring gauge, and is as commanding in presence as Napoleon was in life.
Wrapped in a dark and oily Maduro leaf, this cigar perfects the craftsmanship expected of a regal smoke. It echoes Napoleon’s legacy of grandeur and strategic brilliance, evident from the elegant, dark wrapper to the complex flavors within. The mild to medium-bodied profile offers deep notes of espresso and dark cocoa, providing a smooth and rich taste that is both luxurious and approachable. This combination makes the Napoleon Maduro not just a pleasure to smoke, but a reflection of the duality of Napoleon’s own historical image—powerful yet nuanced.
Napoleon’s appreciation for the majestic is encapsulated in the quote “What is Grand is Always Beautiful,” inscribed in French on the inside of the cigar box. This mantra not only highlights the grandiosity of the cigar itself but also serves as a reminder of the enduring beauty found in acts of bold leadership and ambitious reform.
