Comfort is the theme here, from the casual atmosphere to the deep brown plush sofa, which complement the Classic-style decor. Perfect for pre-drinks or just a quick puff after work, THE DIVAN by Escobar is one of the cigar bar in town that guaranteed to light up your evening.

Of course, the cigars are definitely part of the experience here. So, if you don't like cigars or smoke, this may not be your place. But if you do, they've got a good range to offer. You'll be among lots of others indulging along with you, which makes it a nice communal experience.

To kick start my day, I had the Malongo's Latte. MALONGO is a French specialist in luxury coffee and all of its coffees are roasted using slow, gradual and traditional methods to enable the full flavour development of a great variety. Malongo's pods are made from natural, chlorine-free filter paper that does not affect the coffee's flavour. You can't imagine how the aroma is perfectly preserved out from the pod of 7gms coffee! Ahh.. Got to love this Latte!

At THE DIVAN, you can enjoy Dilmah's most exclusive, most rare and most expensive teas The Very Special Rare Tea (VSRT) series. I tried the Lapsang Sougchong Ceylon tea to sip on while munching on my bar snacks. Gently pan-fried using cinnamon wood, this tea has a prominent wood smoke note with a touch of juiciness and sweetness in its finish. This has become my new favourite besides than the Chamomile now!

While the wine and cocktail list has plenty to choose from, the whisky range at THE DIVAN stands out here, particularly the collection of Peated Malts Distinction. For those in search of something more peaty, here are the lists to try to - ADMORE, CONNEMARA 12 Year Old Peated Single Malt Irish Whisky, BOWMORE 12 Year Old Islay Single Malt Whisky & LAPHROAIG 10 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
For LAPHROAIG 10 Years, it is a full-bodied, smoky gem, with residual sweetness and a hint of salt amid the seaweed, peaty characters before long warming finish. Best cigar pairing - Partagas Serie D4.
Tasting Note:
Colour: Full sparkling gold
Nose: Huge smoke, seaweedy, "medicinal", with a hint of sweetness
Body: Full bodied
Palate: Surprising sweetness with hints of salt and layers of pettiness
Finish: Lingering
Awards:
2015 - 3rd Place Best Single Malt Scotch 10 Years @ International Whisky Competition
2014 - Silver Outstanding Scotch Single Malt - Islay @ International Wine & Spirit Competition
2013 - Double Gold Medal @ SF World Spirits Competition
2013 - Silver Outstanding Scotch Single Malt - Islay @ International Wine & Spirit Competition
2013 - Silver Medal @ International Spirits Challenge
Peated Malts Distinction
Ardmore Traditional Cask
Let your spirits soar with The Ardmore! A young peated Speysider from the excellent Ardmore distillery, ARDMORE Traditional Cask has been finished in quarter casks to speed up maturation. This Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky has won Gold medal in its category at the World Whisky Awards and also the Bronze medal in 2013 Daily Dram - Malt Maniacs Awards.
ARDMORE Traditional Cask is best paired with Ramon Allones Specially Selected cigar. These cigars are dynamic and at times, elegant. It is strong, excitingly spicy and packed with explosive nervous character, rather like a young stallion. Each puff is layered with earthy espresso bean, but notes of marzipan and citrus show the cigar's more sophisticated side. Smoking this cigar is a "real" holistic experience. I have not met an aficionado who has not praised this Robusto.
BOWMORE 12 Years Islay Single Malt Whisky
Another perfect pairing for Ramon Allones Specially Selected cigar is the BOWMORE 12 Years Islay Single Malt Whisky. Founded over two centuries in 1779, Bowmore is the first recorded distillery on Islay (pronounced "eye-la") and one of the oldest in the whole of Scotland. Complex yet perfectly balanced, the 12 Years Old whisky reflects the raw essence of Bowmore - thrashing waves, windswept landscapes and generations of tradition. BOWMORE 12 Years Old has received much acclaim; even the late, great whisky writer Michael Jackson proclaimed it "remarkably long and complex".
Tasting Note:
On the eye: Warm Amber
Breathe in: Subtle lemon & honey, balanced beautifully by Bowmore's trademark peaty smokiness
Sip: Sweet & Delicious heather honey and gentle peat smoke
Savour: The long, mellow finish
Connemara 12 Year Old Peated Single Malt Irish Whiskey
Inspired by Ireland's ancient distilling traditions, CONNEMARA's smooth, sweet malt taste and complex peat flavours makes it truly unique Irish whiskey. CONNEMARA is the most decorated Irish whiskey with a huge collection of Gold Medals and has been honoured as the "World's Best Irish Single Malt". Unearth the Peated Pleasures of Ireland with a stick of MONTE No. 2 cigar!

Tasting Note:
Nose: Lemony and fresh. Quite light, oily peat which melds with a deft touch of light apple and pear, a hint of custard, and creamy malt.
Palate: Sweet, fizzy almost, with rustic, earthy peat, atop rhubarb and custard sweets, cream, malt and granary toast with melted butter. Smoky too, like driftwood on fire.
Finish: Light finish, medium length, some vanilla and tangy fruit with traces of oily smoke and spice.

Whatever your views on the flavour compatibility, cigars and fine wine certainly partner well in creating a luxurious experience and the list at THE DIVAN will not disappoint in that respect. One can enjoy premium wine such as the EXCELSIOR MERLOT 2014. It has won the Gold Medal in 2015 Michelangelo International Wine & Spirits Award. To produce the wine, grapes are harvested by hand for greater quality control.
Tasting Note:
Appearance: Dark, ruby colour
Nose: Sweet violet, blackberry fruits and on the nose
Palate: Succulent flavours of ripe plum and blackcurrant, enhanced by hints of coffee and chocolate. Soft tennis lend a firm structure
EXCELSIOR MERLOT 2014 is best to enjoy with red meat dishes, well-matured cheeses or simply sip for the pure pleasure of it.

Life is good..but wine makes it better~
Sure, you can stay classic with a Cognac or Scotch whisky, but why not experiment starting the evening with a Cigar infused dark Rum? Wait! Cigar in a bottle of Rum? Daryl brought a bottle out from his own collection; a special recipe he created on his own. It was my first experience trying out Rum in such a unique way. It tasted really different; it has a hint of smokiness in every sip of the rum.

I would recommend this place if you're the avid cigar smoker, a classy establishment, or looking to hang out with your crew of friends, for Happy Hour or just for a quiet chill out evening. I'd say THE DIVAN is a great for an evening of smokes and classy drinks every now and again.
With owner, Mr. Daryl Lim
