Buy cigars and cigarillos from Italy

Worth knowing

For those who don't want to cut up the long Toscano "roots" themselves, this short version of the "Classico" is the best choice. Just under half an hour of spicy smoking pleasure is in here - goes just as well with an espresso as it does with a beer.

Flavours

Unlike the other Toscanellos - which are also considerably lighter - this original version is not flavoured, but delights with the unadulterated, woody-spicy-roasty taste of fire-cured Kentucky tobacco. Medium-bodied and fully aromatic, with fine sweet and sour accents for all their heftiness, they offer a coherent and compact taste picture that connoisseurs have been honouring for many decades - not only in Italy. Despite their rustic appearance, the Steckerl burn perfectly.

Worth knowing

Good friends share (almost) everything - this classic Italian dry cigar, for example, each half of which burns for almost half an hour. Medium-bodied and thus considerably lighter than its slightly higher-priced sisters - full-bodied everyday smoke!

Flavours

Not only is the box lighter in colour than the other versions, the aroma is also "lighter in tone" - less heavy, earthy and toasty, but with more cedary and also leathery notes, a little sweeter, plus definitely blessed with a hint of fruity-ethereal acidity. Of course, these Toscanos are also intensely spicy and overall rather fine-tart-piquant, but noticeably more everyday and beginner-friendly than their quite nicotine-rich and unifying sisters. Flawless, smooth burning tobacco with a special note!

Worth knowing

With its particularly long-matured Kentucky wrapper, this "root" embodies rather the softer side of the new flagship series from Italy. Yet it embodies all the trademarks of the cult cigars from the boot for approx. 2x35 minutes.

Flavours

It's amazing how well this cigar manages the balancing act between intense flavour and a pleasantly smooth smoking sensation! By far the lightest "Master Aged", No. 2 nevertheless brings the full aroma of the blend to the palate. The noble toast and smoked notes with their subliminal, dark beer-like maltiness even come to the fore particularly well, while the sweetish facets - generally more present in the long-fillers than in the standard Toscanos anyway - are most prominent here. Mouth-filling, with a cornucopia of vegetal facets and amazingly "umami".

Knowledge

This Vítola made from pure North American leaf is the version for experienced smokers. Enjoy each half of the strong "friendship cigar" for about 35 minutes - but better not before breakfast!

Flavours

The No. 3 is not only the strongest, but also - obviously - the noblest, spiciest "MA". A racy, but thanks to the extra-long maturation not in the least biting pepper note, warming and pleasant, marries harmoniously with the peaty smoky facets, the slightly cocoa-like subliminal sweetness and all the pleasingly multi-layered herbal, autumn leaf and spice tones that the rustic smoke offers in the course of smoking. A simply perfect aromatic for all those who like to puff an "Extra Vecchio" or "Antico" on the side and would like a little more finesse!

Toscano erweitern das Portfolio ihrer aromatisierten kleinen Trockenzigarren um diese Variante mit Haselnussgeschmack – großartige Idee! Um die 20 Minuten Genuss – natürlich mit der gewohnten Qualität italienischen Kentucky-Tabaks!

Aromen

Natürlich bestimmt die Aromatisierung das Geschmacksprofil des reizenden kleinen Smokes mit Mundstück – schmelzig-süße Haselnüsse sind von Anfang bis Ende präsent. Aber bei Toscano kann man es eben einfach – die Saucierung ist niemals zu dominant, sondern lässt auch die markanten natürlichen Aromen des markentypischen feuergetrockneten Kentucky-Tabaks zu ihrem Recht kommen. So kommen auch schöne Röst-, Erd- und Räucheraromen an den Gaumen, welche die vom natürlich karamellisierten Mundstück verstärkte Süße elegant abfedern. Die Raffinato mutet ein wenig stärker an als die anderen Toscanelli.

Worth knowing

"Raffinato" means nothing other than that the cigarillos are specially sweetened at the mouthpiece. Thus, this variety of the popular "Rosso" offers a particularly flattering 10 - 15 minute smoking experience with the tried and tested Kentucky tobacco and coffee flavouring.

Flavours

The fire-cured Kentucky tobacco brings in plenty of pithy spice and bold smoky aromas - admittedly in the beginner-friendly "Toscanello" series in a much more moderate form than, for example, the quaint "Toscano Antico". Not only the "sugared" mouthpiece counteracts this as a sweet counterpoint, but also the well-known, perfectly balanced addition of fine, authentic coffee aroma, which predestines the little gold pieces to be the ideal accompaniment to a good Italian espresso. Subtle woody notes and tingling natural roasted aromas complement the fun very harmoniously.

Worth knowing

Of all the adorable little dry Toscanello cigars, these are by far the best fit for the festive season. Lightly blended and flavoured, these "half Toscanos" are the ideal choice for lovers of light, intensely sweet 15-minute smokes!

Aroma

Sour-sweet, fragrant apple aroma harmonises perfectly with the Christmas-like, at the same time exotic spice of cinnamon and star anise. When smoking, you immediately get the authentic Christmas market flair of baked apples and mulled wine on the palate! As usual with the traditional brand, however, the saucing is not too sweet and penetrating, but leaves enough room for the spicy fire-dried Kentucky tobacco with its spicy roasted, woody and smoky notes to develop. And don't worry - of course the charming little "roots" also taste good in summer!

Worth knowing

Dedicated to Italy's heroic unifier, this is a Toscano that can appeal to everyone in the (smoking) crowd - lighter than its sisters, more moderate in flavour and at a super-fair price! Burns in half the usual 30 minutes.

Flavours

The lightest Toscano is also, obviously, the mildest - it has the most distinctive flavour profile. The classic woody notes are softer and "lighter" here, it has more pleasantly acidic overtones, a touch more sweetness and a nutty, toasty component that the other variants do not offer. The expressive resin and smoky tones, on the other hand, seem to be noticeably reduced. Basically, the Kentucky offers a wonderfully unadulterated, thoroughly honest tobacco taste - what more could you want for the price?

Worth knowing

All flavoured Toscanellos are much lighter, thus more suitable for beginners and everyday use than the sometimes quite strong natural variants. They make friends for about 25 minutes with good tobacco and a high-quality, clearly recognisable sauciness.

Flavours

Relatively mild, aromatically pleasing Kentucky with woody, smoky and moderately toasty-earthy flavours is used for these small stumps. In contrast to the long Toscanos, the intense smoky notes of the fire curing are not very prominent here. Instead, a subtle natural sweetness can be tasted throughout. Just as good coffee of any kind tastes great with a cigar anyway, this flavouring is a safe bet and the "perfect match" par excellence!

Worth knowing

In every respect - price, maturation time, strength - this Toscano lies between "Classico" and "Antico" - except for the price, however, somewhat closer to the former. Strong, honest fare with ingenious PLV and approx. 30 minutes smoking time per half "root"!

Flavours

In addition to dark wood aromas, a deep note between earth and cocoa along with hints of sweetness, all Toscanos have certain hearty notes that make you think of smoked meat - no wonder, because this is exactly what happens in the process of "fire-curing" with the tobacco! The process is usually applied to particularly strong Kentucky pipe tobaccos, so the flavour parallels to these are no coincidence either. With high flavour intensity, very concise spiciness and official nicotine content, the gnarled stumps are lovable exotics among machine-made cigars.

Worth knowing

In Toscano's hand-rolled new premium range, the No. 1 marks the middle, so to speak, between the lightest (2) and the strongest (3) format. Aged for a year and rolled by master craftsmen, the stately stick burns for about 2x35 minutes (you usually split the cigar).

Flavours

Classic Toscano flavours, immediately recognisable to the fan, combine in the gnarled long filler to create the usual full-bodied, above-average powerful "KentuckItalia" smoking experience, which in this blend is primarily determined by wonderfully distinctive toasted aromas. In addition to the smoky spice that is always present, however, it is a surprisingly distinct "dark" liquorice sweetness that leaves its mark on this original blend. Not to forget the rich, pleasantly astringent wood bouquet, which again appears much more differentiated in the whole leaves of this luxury Toscano than in the shortfillers.

Worth knowing

The noblest and longest matured version of the rustic "roots" made from the best Kentucky tobacco is also one of the strongest. Like all Toscanos, it's best to cut it in half - this XL version will then give you about 40 minutes of pleasure.

Flavours

The unmistakable flavour picture with unifying intense notes of wood, smoke, peat and cocoa comes across here even more striking than in the other Toscanos, but at the same time more delicate and even more elegant. Unlike its younger sisters, the 1-year-old tobacco also develops tartly sweet notes reminiscent of dried apricots, which make these extravagant dry cigars with the characteristic marble-look wrapper an unexpectedly refined smoke for experienced connoisseurs!

Worth knowing

The Italian-grown Kentucky tobacco used to make these classic stumps for experienced connoisseurs is matured for a year. A half lasts for around 30 minutes, draws better than a whole one - and it's also quite enough in terms of power!

Flavours

Heavy, midnight-dark roast, peat and smoky aromas lay close to the palate, underpinned by a hint of cocoa and liquorice sweetness and the pleasant astringency of fine woods. Sounds more like a premium cigar than a "dry stogie" for 2.- per piece? - Indeed, the intense flavour has its very own elegance, admittedly primarily for friends of noble tart enjoyment. Strong, aromatically extremely compact and not without complexity, this absolute cult product delights not only the film character "Don Camillo".

Worth knowing

All flavoured Toscanellos are much lighter, thus more suitable for beginners and everyday use than the sometimes quite strong natural variants. They make friends for about 25 minutes with good tobacco and a high-quality, clearly recognisable sauciness.

Flavours

Relatively mild, aromatically pleasing Kentucky with woody, smoky and moderately toasty-earthy flavours is used for these small stumps. In contrast to the long Toscanos, the intense smoky notes of the fire curing are not very prominent here. Instead, a subtle natural sweetness can be tasted throughout. Not much needs to be said about the vanilla flavouring used here - everyone knows it, everyone likes it. What is important is that the saucing is used moderately and does not cover the tobacco.

Worth knowing

All flavoured Toscanellos are much lighter, thus more suitable for beginners and everyday use than the partly quite strong natural variants. They make friends for about 25 minutes with good tobacco and a high-quality, clearly recognisable sauciness.

Flavours

Relatively mild, aromatically flavoured Kentucky with woody, smoky and moderately rösty earthy flavours is used for these small stumps. In contrast to the long Toscanos, the intense smoke notes of the fire curing are not very prominent here. Instead, a discreet natural sweetness can be tasted throughout. With the vinous, oily aroma of noble cognac, this aroma naturally goes well together. Certainly the noblest sauced Toscanello.

Wissenswertes

Alle aromatisierten Toscanellos sind wesentlich leichter, damit einsteiger- und alltagstauglicher als die teils ganz schön starken naturbelassenen Varianten. Sie machen ca. 25 Minuten lang Freunde mit gutem Tabak und einer hochwertigen, klar erkennbaren Saucierung.

Aromen

Für diese kleinen Stumpen wird relativ milder, aromatisch gefälliger Kentucky mit holzigen, rauchigen und moderat röstig-erdigen Geschmacksnoten verwendet. Im Gegensatz zu den langen Toscanos stehen die intensiven Räuchernoten der Feuertrocknung hier nicht weit im Mittelpunkt. Dafür ist eine dezente natürliche Süße durchgehend zu erschmecken. Die „Weißen“ bergen authentisch die fruchtige Säure und die dunkle, lakritzige Süße des italienischen Nationalbrandes in sich.

What you need to know

Like all ‘MA’ flavours, blended from various Kentucky tobaccos grown in Italy, carefully fermented and cared for by ‘affinatori’ (refiners), this variant also offers approx. 2 x 35 minutes of intense smoking pleasure with a kick!

Flavours

Situated somewhere between S 1 and S 3 in terms of strength, and therefore in the rather strong range, this new long filler has an exciting flavour profile of its own to offer, although the brand is of course immediately recognisable. A delightful interplay of strikingly spicy facets and clear fermentation sweetness unfolds right from the start. In addition to the solid, slightly BBQ-like ‘smoky flavour’ that fire-dried tobaccos naturally possess, the ‘Vierer’ shines first and foremost with solid dark wood tones. There are also earthy and slightly fruity notes.

Worth knowing

Luckily, it's here again in 2022 - the giant of Italian cigar production, in terms of both size and quality! You won't find better fire-cured Kentucky tobacco anywhere in the world. The smoking time exceeds 2 hours, yet you never get enough of this unique smoke.

Flavours

This time, the edition is dedicated to the element "air", to refer to the importance of maturation for the taste. This is anything but a lukewarm breeze, because as usual, the mighty "root" combines maximum intensity with refinement, harmony and profundity. Profound peat aromas, a malty, bittersweet cocoa note and the scent of oak mingle with a whole palette of fruity tones, from sour, ethereal orange to the heavy sweetness of dried dates. Toasty espresso flavour and liquorice are also present. As expected, not necessarily something for beginners - strong!
