Cohiba Robustos Cigar - 1 Single (You Are My Romeo Band)

Date Added: Wednesday 22 May, 2019 by DAVID

A little underwhelming actually. A present. Not a brilliant draw and very insipid, virtually no discernible taste or flavour and halfway through. Maybe this is not a good one, though for £27... I have been smoking Regius though, so maybe these are meant to be light??

I bought this cigar as part of the Cuban Robusto Taster pack, and was my 3rd in said pack. As a newbie to cigar smoking, I was looking forward to this one, being arguably the best Cuban brand. It didnt disappoint. What a beauty. A smooth, even draw, plenty of smoke, but probably a bit strong for me. Another thing I really enjoyed (with a smile on my face), was the fact that I might not be able to afford a huge house, Aston Martin etc. But a working class Northerner can smoke some of the best cigars in the world...just like Winston.

This is my favourite medium size cigar although on the slightly price side for me. They are ideal for the special occasion. I can just finish work on a Friday order a take away and fine red wine and smoke this afterwards. The taste of exceptional, along with the draw and smoke.

Reviewed by Wes Burk (May 2004) I always try the punch first on these fatties and it proved to provide the perfect draw on this baby. I got massive Cuban flavor with leather and spice right off the bat. Every draw seemed to hint at different flavors; licorice on one pull, pepper on another, was that cocoa I tasted for a minute? The burn was even and the ash was dark but very firm! So firm, it lasted to the midway point before it fell on my shirt. The flavor was smooth but strong. The smoke was young but full and creamy. Towards the end of this beauty, the spice kicked up a notch. Pepper is my favorite spice and it shown through for the last third of this smoke. The most pronounced flavor consistently present through this entire cigar was the one most difficult to define, that lovely something that is only found in Habanos! There was one major problem with this cigar...........It didn't last long enough!! I didn't want it to end. It is what Cuban Cigars are all about! I give it a 94 and I've never given higher. Smoke was young ? Most pronounced flavour indefinable ? Oh...and licorice and cocoa ? Short, boring and pointless. Reviewed by Kevin R 3/10 Short and sweet - like the Robusto itself, may be a bit too short though. Agreed with the reviewer - there is a something in these cigars that makes them resolutely Cohiba (MRN calls it a grassy taste. I think that is about the most accurate I have come across). No mention of any accompanying drink, if indeed there was one. Reviewed by Richard Whitwell. Score: 7/10 Succinct and to the point ...I like that. I don't agree with the flavours detected with the exception of cocoa but cigar tasing is so personal and so many variable come into play. Score: 7.5/10 OVERALL SCORE: 17.5 /30

Not going to be my first choice in cigar. It was too strong for my taste, will probably try an edmodo next time. Will still give it 3 out of 5 because it's a good 45 minute smoke and many hardcore smokers I know will enjoy and don't want to put them off.

Well my first Cohiba Robusto and I have to say it was sublime, straight medium for me but everything about it is pure class. Razor Sharpe burn, creamy and nutty with just a hint of chocolate and coffee, expensive for the size for sure but you can sort of understand it as it oozes quality. A real treat!
