ORGASMIC EXPERIENCES around food and cocktails

The beauty of  cigars and rum pairing never stops been amazing they always grow to be exceptional.This year with an array of more and more releases of rum i just to had to go through the journey of rums that could go down well with the amazing arrays of cigars across the world.

Sometime back having tasted some impressive cigars here are my thoughts on it.Alec bradley Connecticut cigar torpedo has notes of  milders smoke ,with tastes of cream ,tea ,orange and woody finish .
This cigar works well with  aged rhums from Guadeloupe that does share alot of the notes of herbal but with body.














Alec bradley is a mild bodied cigar from Honduras however its wrapper come from a tiny community of hardworking folk in Ecuador .

The Alec bradley goes well with plantation oftd ,real maccoy 12 years and rhum barbancourt 15 years

When reviewing its body and complexity i would give it an 8/10 and for its price at around 9 dollars a piece this is a great starter for those that would love to enjoy pairings .

The Oliva Serie V Torpedo is a very full bodied cigar with notes of nuts ,maple and a bouquet of dried fruit .
Oliva comes from Nicaragua  and retails at around 10 dollars .On pairing it i will recommend Appleton 21 for starters but if money is not a thing for you  then do try pair it  with the 25 year release .

Oliva series appeals  to house of angostura 1787, Appleton 21  and rons like Havana 15 .

Lets look at some traditional alcohol that i personally feel hold the communities in high regard but can also be used to highlight and be part of creating African cocktails. MURATINA.   Muratina is an alcoholic drink named after the fruit of the same name....

During the Nairobi beer Festival organised courtesy of Eat Out Kenya and Baraka Israel there where two major breweries that indeed leave a huge impression.There was  254 brewery and Bateleur brewery, they are microbreweries or craft breweries that offered something quite invigorating to the market.I for one have never been a fan of beer however this two craft breweries did give me a chance to appreciate beer at its finest.
