I am new to the world of cigar smoking, and my cigar of choice is the Robusto. I have tried several brands including the Hoyo De Montarey Epicure No2 which was very nice, but must agree with all of the other reviews regarding this cigar, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It burned really evenly and was a very pleasant smoke GREAT value for the money and I will be ordering more.

Surprisingly good for the price. Nice, simple light, smooth flavours and a pleasurable experience.
I stood in a Baltic breeze coming in off the River Clyde and the ash held for half of the cigar, and the burn was very even. Will definitely buy again.

I have happily made a return to cigars after a 15 year absence and ordered a few samplers,this being one of them. A good solid example, which took a bit of keeping flowing to begin with, needing a litle effort to maintain a decent draw, but once past the initial first inch, it gained in flavour and I really enjoyed it. Not too strong but full of flavour throughout. For the price I strongly recommend it and will certainly order more.

I enjoyed this cigar very much. I am very new to cigars but after trying some smaller cigarillos first I found this to be far superiour and quite mild which I enjoyed. It lasted a good amount of time for me as I don't often have alot of free time to enjoy but it wasn't over too quickly. I'd certainly recommend it for the price. What to try next is my only problem!

This cigar wasn't quite my cup of tea - but that's just personal preference. I found it to be grassy at the start, then it developed some liquorice flavours through the mid-section, before finishing with a slightly disappointing earthiness. Unfortunately, liquorice doesn't rank amongst those flavours which I like, but I suppose plenty do. The construction was excellent - clean and even burn, plenty of smoke and a solid ash. For the price, if you like the flavour profile, you really can't go wrong.
