Pairing Suggestion

The RoMa Craft Intemperance EC XVIII blend uses an Ecuador Connecticut wrapper, providing a medium-bodied profile with notes of caramel, grain, and an earthy finish. This balanced smoke pairs well with a creamy, traditional Irish Whiskey or a smooth Añejo Tequila. For beer, a malty Brown Ale is recommended to enhance the caramel notes.
