The Nat Sherman Timeless Collection – Two Extraordinary Blends
Thursday, May 24th, 2018Nat Sherman, a legendary name in premium cigars, first set up shop in NYC in 1930, and now 88 years later, his ever-expanding portfolio includes some of the most sought-after cigars in the world.
In 2011, the Sherman family, with the help of industry legend Manuel Quesada, put a contemporary spin on their cigar business with a brand called Nat Sherman Timeless Collection, a blend made to appeal to the modern smoker’s palate. It was released to such rave reviews that it made Cigar Aficionado’s Top 25 list of 2012 list and would go on to become a top seller for the company.
The Nat Sherman Timeless Collection is available in two styles starting with the Dominican blend that is available in a huge eight vitola selection. All these cigars feature aged tobaccos from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua expertly rolled inside a seamless golden-brown Honduran wrapper. these sweet smelling, smooth tasting, medium bodied cigars, serve up savory notes of espresso, earth, some hints of vanilla, citrus, and a warm toasty finish.
Riding on the heels of the original Timeless cigars, in 2012 the company released the Timeless Collection Nicaragua version that has the same banding as its Dominican cousin. One way you can tell the two blends apart aside from the wrapper differences is that the Nicaraguan version is a box-press cigar.
Available in four vitolas, as opposed to eight, the Nat Sherman Timeless Nicaragua cigars are puros consisting of the best-aged Nicaraguan tobaccos, once again, flawlessly rolled under the supervision of the famous Quesada family.
Like the Dominican variety, this one is a medium body blend, however, as expected it boasts a totally different flavor profile. After toasting and lighting, you will savor a complex medley of molasses, oak, chocolate, cedar, and fruit flavors, all punctuated with a long lasting sweet tobacco finish.
With the perfect balance between flavor and strength, both medium body Timeless brands are powerful enough for a veteran smoker yet display a creamy smooth character that will entice a newcomer.
Best of all, the entire Timeless Collection portfolio showcases the quality and extraordinary taste that comes with every premium handmade Nat Sherman cigar.
