I don't smoke Vegas Robainas that often, but I really enjoyed this one. The flavours are very pronounced, with leather and spice dominating throughout. There are also occasional floral and chocolate notes that appear in the second third and remain in a subtle, pleasant way on the finish. Definitely worth a try! -Calum, Turmeaus Chester

Pre pre-deployment weekend. Left the family to stay in a b&b before going back to base. All about me, nothing else.
Been saving this bad boy in my humidor for a while(can't remember how long) And after a very nice three course dinner I decided to pick this Habana up.
As always I've brought my own ashtray, and I've found a nice quiet part outside. And I'm now ready.
Never been much for the pre-light procedure as such, as long as I got my ashtray I'm happy. So cut and light it was, and after that, pure magic!!!
The light it self so smooth, the draw was absolutely fantastic and flavours everything you'd expect from a top draw Habana. Could ramble on about chocolate etc. But instead I'm gonna say, well balanced, surprising and absolutely amazing!

In my early teens, a couple of friends and I would sneak into an off-licence and buy some cheap cigars - Hamlet, Henri Winterman's Cafe Creme, you know the sort. At the time we thought we were the bee's knees.
Well, this cigar has brought back those heady days. And not in a good way.
Construction is excellent. The burn is razor-sharp all the way. I didn't need to touch up with my lighter once.
But the flavour? Bland, not exactly harsh, but hardly smooth. Dull. Uninteresting. Never again.
My overwhelming impression? I'm sorry to say this, but it just tasted "cheap".
I bought some H Upmann half-coronas at the same time I bought these. They were only marginally more expensive, but were a world away in terms of flavour, quality and - most important of all - enjoyment.
Sometimes a misspent youth is worth revisiting. Not this time.

A pleasant tropical fruit aroma with hints of hickory nuts. Easy to light and burns even and quite cool, advisable to be smoked slowly. Overall a nice aromatic blend to be enjoyed peacefully - typical for a rainy day scenario. Michael - C.Gars Ltd

A nice aromatic blend, although quite full bodied in flavouring and medium in taste. Great aroma with hints of sweet fruit with spicy undertones. Burns well and can easily be enjoyed peacefully. To get the best smoking experience, it's best to smoke slowly. Michael - C.Gars Ltd

This is a great cigarillo!
I ordered these with some other small cigars and cigarillos to try out and experiment with, and over a period of time i decided to try one of these, and to my delight; they were delicious.
Upon first lighting one, a fine and smooth taste of chocolate and other confectionaries fill the mouth; smoke output is good for what it is and so is the burn time (15 - 20 minutes), as I reached half way through the taste was consistent and did not change.
I don't smoke often and only in a social situation with friends at party's; so this was more than ample for me, plus because of a low nicotine content and a medium strength, I did not have the urge to have more and I did not have a nauseating feeling afterwards.
Give it a try, it's a nice cigarillo to have once in a while.
