Le Careme is crafted by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo for Crowned Heads and the dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper accounts for notes of charred oak, spice, and black coffee with a medium-plus strength. Le Careme pays tribute to Marie Antoine Carême, a pioneer in French cuisine during the 1800s whose long list of accomplishments includes the establishing of mother sauces, documentation of French cuisine, and popularizing the soufflé.
