FATHERS DAY - Mitchellero Robusto Cigar - Box of 20

Date Added: Thursday 20 May, 2021 by Elia

I ordered a single.

As stated by Mark in another review the wrapper for me arrived cracked - though thankfully didn’t unravel. I think it may just be a thin wrapper and I expect when I receive my box which I plan on ordering that this problem won’t happen again (I suspect postage and being knocked about damaged the thin wrapper in transit.

The smoke is astonishingly creamy. It has a mild sweetness from the first third till around halfway. I would almost describe it as a flat white made with jersey cream. Really delicious for me as I no longer can drink coffee.

The smoke has a slight yeasty bready quality that was massively accentuated with a small sip of Earl grey tea. Really addicting.

The final third became more savoury and peppery. Black pepper spice at the back of the tongue and throat. A nice transition to be honest. The creaminess thins out but it’s still got some thickness.

The flavours are mild-medium bodied I would say. Be interesting to see how it tastes with some age.

Burn time for me (pretty slow smoker) was 1:10:00 with no relights. Great construction.
