Sobremesa Brulee

Sobremesa, “over the table”, has no precise English translation, perhaps because there is no cultural equivalent in the US. It is an idiom used among the Latin culture to describe the leisurely time spent tableside after you have finished dining, but before you rise. It is the experience of lingering casually with family and friends in conversation, relaxing, drinking, smoking, and enjoying each other’s company. Sobremesa is one of life’s simplest, yet greatest pleasures.The Brûlée is a variation of the core Sobremesa liga in which the Pennsylvania Seedleaf ligero has been removed, the Condega Seco has been increased and the Capa is now a top shelf grade of Ecuador Connecticut Shade. The result is a milder, even smoother adaptation of the Sobremesa blend that continues to retain its wonderfully complex flavors and aromas.The Sobremesa Brûlée Blue and Brûlée Wagashi 和菓子are both special limited productions of our Brûlée liga, but at opposite ends of the strength spectrum. The Brûlée Blue is crafted a touch stronger and then aged a full year, whereas the Brûlée Wagashi 和菓子 is a more delicate, creamier blend with soft touch of baking spice.
