Think I had one of those occasional bad bunch of the pack, the draw was really really tight and therefore can only say I was disappointed, the aromas were lovely, cocoa and vanilla notes, it's just a shame I couldn't get anything from the drawer, from the other reviews I see this has not been issue, so I will try another and hopefully not encounter the same problems. Rating based on great aroma but no draw.

Trinidad Reyes Cigar - 1 Single
by Iain
To start with cosmetically a really nice looking cigar, well constructed. On lighting really good draw with a thick white smoke, definitely got the coffee and a little pepper for the first two thirds, last third a little spicy for my taste. All in all found this a good solid cuban experience teetering on the fuller flavour, appreciated the quality of this smoke but I prefer a milder sweeter smoke, however can appreciate that this is a quality cigar which would suit many cuban enthusiasts. So the only reason for the 'mark down' is from a personal taste.

Lovely creamy taste throughout, great mild smoke perfect for a 20 minute coffee break, great draw and nice even burn throughout. All together a great little smoke when time is an issue

Purchased as part of a Monty sampler and as with most of my cigars went into the humidor to settle for a month before I tried. I have to say, whilst I typically favour a 50 gauge or slightly larger, this 46 was a perfect late morning smoke- about 35 mins. The ash seemed reluctant to leave and I was well into the 2nd third before it departed. No real burn issues, slight sidedness but corrected quickly all on its own. Slight spice, no real ammonia, good flavours but a little kick and into the final third some very pleasing sweetness. I enjoyed the transitions though they were subtle, at least to my pallet. I'll happily purchase again, though some H. Ups. Magnum 50's are on my next purchase list.

All I can say is WOW! This must rate as one of the best Robustos around. I loved the mild aroma with plenty of smoke, the cigar had a creamy taste, it burned very evenly and never got hot until the very end. The cigar seemed of an excellent standard of construction. I will purchase more of these without any doubt and cannot wait to try the Petit Robusto and the Epicure Especial. An excellent breakfast and day time cigar..

I bought this cigar on the back of a number of positive reviews and was not disappointed. Very nice indeed. A little bit looser on the draw than I usually like, but lots of flavoursome smoke and the oily wrapper is a great touch. I will be definitely buying them again.
