My Father Blue Robusto Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Saturday 31 January, 2026 by Jacob

I would say this was my first proper cigar. I’ve smoked cigars before but always after too many drinks and always with no knowledge of what I’m smoking. This cigar I smoked in the late afternoon on a driech Scottish day. Paired with a glass of Leffe Blonde and a dram of 14 yr old Jura. On the dry inhale it had a woodland autumnal taste, perhaps a bit of old leather bound books. The first third was mellow, milk chocolate, flat white coffee. I loved it. The whisky tasted better, smoother, the sweetness of the bourbon cask really coming through. The second and final thirds progressed through a deeper coffee and darker chocolate flavour but never too bitter. I think the Leffe and Jura helped here. The retrohales were warm gentle spice throughout. It was marvellous, I'm going to buy another. I’ve not smoked anything to compare it to but that’s a high bar. No issues with how it burned or smoked. Thank you to My Father and the people who made this cigar. What a great introduction to cigar smoking.
