Bought as part of a mixed cigar sampler and after unwrapping the plain paper encasing it the cigar looked ok and solid enough, but the decision was then which end to smoke first as both ends were seemingly identical. Looking closely I opted for the end which appeared to be slightly better packed (although in all honesty it probably didn’t make a blind bit of difference)! The cigar lasted about 15-20 minutes, it had no real flavour other than some slight bitterness, it was medium to strong and overall not very pleasant it has to be said. When down to the last 1/4 it became very soggy indeed and quite soon afterwards my mouth was full of bits of tobacco with each puff - not nice! I endured the last few puffs of the cigar (with less than an inch left) and these were very hot draws until unfortunately I could stand it no more. Not an enjoyable experience and I shall make sure never to purchase this particular cigar again I’m afraid!

Vegas Robaina Famosos Cigar - 1 Single
by Patrick
This had great potential looked great from the outside, cut cleanly but a prelighting drawn immediately warned me how tight the cigar was. I can not say that I again disappointed at the quality control of Cuban cigars over those from the New World. I prefer Cubans but they are hit and miss and at the current prices that it is fair risk.
When I did achieve a decent mouthful of smoke this cigar was great but so hard to smoke. Cuba needs to raise its game and become more consistent, the products are great BUT expensive and when you spend this sort of money perfection is not an unreasonable expectation, especially from an EMS cigar. Hunters & Frankau take note. I bought two Ramon Allones Specially Selected in St Tropez and they were excellent which begs the question as to whether the UK gets the best anymore.

A pretty okay little smoke. The first half is a little bland, picking up to a nice chocolate flavour as you approach the last third, becoming a little more robust and chewy, which is great. Just a shame it takes a while to get there, but itÂ’s an easy smoke with a nice draw and a good even burn. Just be ready to pick bits out of your mouth though as itÂ’s a little loose in the top end. It does the job the money pays for though, so alls weÂ’ll that ends well.
