Carlos André Cast Off When taste discovers new worlds... A nuanced, harmoniously balanced long-filler composition with vibrant aromas makes the CARLOS ANDRÉ CAST OFF a voyage into the future of a great tobacco tradition. In nautical terms, "CAST OFF" refers to the moment of departure—a tribute to the free and relaxed atmosphere at sea, where one lets the poetic and impressive nature take effect, where the mind travels with the waves, and previously distant, new destinations suddenly come into clear view. Carlos André Cast Off – Subtle, aromatic enjoyment instead of bold, dominant impressions Presented in a modern, magnetically sealed box in a confident lava black with a softly shimmering silver CARLOS ANDRÉ logo, the elegantly embossed cigar band encircles a hand-selected, five-year-aged Connecticut Shade Desflorado wrapper from Ecuador. The silky texture and golden-brown color are unusual for a Connecticut Shade wrapper and result from the special use of a "Desflorado" leaf. This means the flowers of the tobacco plants were removed at an early stage, allowing the leaves to absorb significantly more nutrients and thus develop greater aroma. "We have deliberately prioritized aromatic complexity over sheer strength in the new CARLOS ANDRÉ CAST OFF, ensuring that every fine facet of our blend remains vividly present on the palate," says Petra Lindenschmidt, Vice President of Arnold André Dominicana. "A subtle, refined interplay of flavor nuances that will delight discovery-loving cigar enthusiasts." Taste Profile: The beautiful Connecticut Shade Desflorado wrapper from Ecuador, with its silky texture and golden-brown hue, invites enjoyment from the very first glance. From the start, the CARLOS ANDRÉ CAST OFF seduces with creamy cappuccino notes, skillfully blended with earthy tones, slightly bitter accents, and the delicate sweetness of fresh almonds. Exotic fruits make a restrained appearance without becoming dominant, while licorice gradually enters the scene. In the final third, a hint of white pepper emerges. Conclusion: The CARLOS ANDRÉ CAST OFF offers a multifaceted experience—a profound, finely aromatic pleasure in perfect harmony.
