The H. Upmann Robusto felt like a really classic Cuban experience for me. Right from the start, there was that signature smoothness—cedar, light spice, and a creamy texture that made it very approachable. The draw was just right, offering a steady flow of aromatic smoke. Flavor-wise, it had a nice balance of wood, earth, and a touch of nuttiness. About halfway through, I noticed a floral note along with some sweetness that kept things interesting. The burn line wasn’t perfect, but it corrected itself without much effort. What stood out most was how refined it felt—everything was in harmony, with no harshness or bitterness. Compared to some of the stronger Nicaraguan smokes I’ve tried, this felt more subtle and elegant, though still full of character. By the final third, the flavors deepened, with more earth and spice, but it never lost its smoothness. This cigar gave me a real sense of Cuban tradition and why brands like H. Upmann are so respected. I’d definitely keep a few of these on hand for when I want something classic and dependable.

Excellent cigar. Perfectly constructed. Burnt flawlessly with a clean draw.
I used to stick to mild cigars but this one was medium strength with a touch of spice which I now realise I quite like. Paired with a glass of Cognac which complimented it perfectly. Burned for 45 minutes with no bitterness.
My new favourite.
One to try. Well worth it and for a very reasonable price.

What let his down for me was the uneven burn. Lovely flavours, but the burn let it down for me. Maybe just a bad one

I found these cigars about 10 years ago as I decided I wanted to get back to smoking cigars on a regular basis again. These are perfect for a quick smoke.i would say around 15-20 mins all depending on how you smoke. I must of had around 20 odd boxes of these and only had an issue once with one cigar that I couldn’t draw as it was packed too tight. A very mild cigar with strong vanilla taste. Lovely.

Must agree with others. Very pleasantly surprised with these. Didn't expect much but these sweet, evenly flavoured cigars were enjoyable & good at the price. Will order again.
