Although in the Christian tradition, Easter commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the origins of this celebration can be traced back to the Jewish feast of Pesach, which refers to the biblical episode of the Exodus, when Moses freed the Jewish people from slavery in Egypt. In more ancient times, the origins of this custom can be traced back to a pagan celebration whose aim was simply to celebrate the arrival of spring and the awakening of nature in all its splendour. What each of these traditions has in common is that they all take place on the first Sunday following the arrival of spring. The first Sunday following the first full moon after the equinox determines the date of each year's festivities. This year, the sun promises to be out in full force.
Basically, whatever our beliefs, Easter is the time of year when we gather around a table to fully appreciate sharing a special moment with our loved ones, usually over a lovingly concocted meal. The little ones can't wait to run around looking for the eggs hidden in the garden nooks and crannies. And for the aficionados in all of us, why not accompany the chocolate-filled baskets with a selection of Cigars?
As a child, my grandmother had a reputation for being an outstanding hostess. Every year, friends, cousins, aunts and uncles would gather at my mother's childhood home, which my architect grandfather had built for his family. The magnificent building overlooked the hills of Lac des Quatre Cantons, making the view breathtaking. The feast, carefully prepared by my grandmother, always ended with the traditional dessert buffet, on which were laid out an impressive array of sweet delights. Iles flottantes, pana cotta and almond tuiles were all there. Afterwards, my grandfather would settle comfortably into his armchair and indulge in his favorite indulgence: his cigarillo.
Davidoff club 52. I wonder if he ever smoked anything other than the small format he so cherished throughout his life. My grandfather was a man of rituals, he liked everything to go according to plan. That's why the protocol for each family event was always followed to the letter. While discussions were animated around the family table, where everyone was having a good time, he would withdraw for a few moments without saying a word, just long enough to smoke a cigarillo. I always knew that this ritual act was a form of meditation for him, a way of putting time on pause, the time to contemplate the festive scene unfolding before his eyes. This was the moment when he took the time to be grateful, and to fully appreciate the joy of living in the abundance that the life he had built for himself offered him.
The Davidoff Club Cigarillos is a blend of the finest tobaccos from Indonesia, Brazil and the Caribbean. There are 5 of these tobaccos in all, and each one brings out its own quality when you smoke the cigar. The whole is rolled in a Sumatra wrapper, which lends this cigar its elegance. The result of this combination is a product with excellent flavors, well aromatized and a pleasant appearance.

Visit Furia Sampler... Pagan reference for a special Easter?
The name of the line pays homage to the Greek myth of the "Furies" of the underworld:
"Alecto,
"Megaera and
"Trisiphone. The rings that usually surround cigars have been replaced by pieces of woollen thread in three different colors, each associated with one of the three modules. The Alecto is adorned with a dark blue cord, the Megaera with a red cord and the Trisiphone with a saffron-orange wool thread. Furia cigars are made from the finest tobaccos carefully selected in Nicaragua. The top-quality leaves are aged for 3 to 6 years and come from the best Esteli, Condega and Omotepe vintages. The "oscuro" wrapper elegantly envelops blends from the Jalapa region. These three vitolas are a real success and will delight cigar lovers with strong personalities.
The three formats of the Nicaraguan Premium Puro Furia series are summarized in this economic trial offer. Masterblender Didier Houvenaghel's complex cigars offer medium to strong cigar pleasure, with plenty of flavor. They combine the popular spicy character of mature Nicaraguan tobaccos with creamy notes of cocoa, earth, fruit and nuts, as well as floral-sweet nuances. The names of the three delicious cigars: Tisiphone (Gordo), Megaera (Toro) and Alecto (Short Robusto) are borrowed from Greek mythology. They represent the three goddesses of Olympus.
You can easily see that this exciting sampler is a real bargain. Namely, the trial pack includes the entire Furia trio series at a price for which, according to Adam Riese, you'll only get the two large formats in the form of a single cigar.
