Tight draw fell apart from just over halfway down , tasted ok the bit of it I did have looking at the other reviews think maybe I just got a bad one

Every once in a while a cigar comes along that really stands out from the rest and this habano is one such cigar - outstanding. My only criticism would be that the end got a little soggy making the draw a bit tight at times although this might have been more from my enthusiasm in smoking it than anything else!

Firm consistency, 1-inch+ ash, beautiful and rich plume, earthy notes and oak/cacao flavors, VERY nice and smooth draw, wish it was bigger so I could enjoy for another 10-15 minutes, still went on to 40-45 minutes with a fine Mauritius spiced rum. Very good choice, recommended.

Now this is a rich cigar. Maybe a little too rich for my tastes. In all its a fantastic cigar. Build is fantastic, lots of lovely plume on the BEAUTIFULLY dark oily wrapper, LOTS of smoke but also slow burning meaning you get a lot of cigar for your money. Flavour wise this reminds me of a great quality Nicaraguan mixed with the strong earthy characteristics of a Bolivar. Lots of cream and cacao but what maybe didnt appeal to me is the strong oaky bitter flavours in the first half. The second half was much smoother with lots of nice dark coffee flavours. Smoked this right down to the nub. An all round good cigar.

Michael, try another. It would be a shame never to enjoy one. This is one of the most enjoyable cigars for a while. Well, a fortnight, since my first Partagàs Series P 4, anyway. Two great cigars but also very different. The Vegas Robaina Familiares is indeed familiar, as it immediately evoked a Villager Export I enjoyed on the banks of Windermere back in the 80s, when I struggled to afford even those. That might seem faint praise of the VRF, but I have smoked more expensive brands that afforded less pleasure than that lowly Villager in subsequent years. I would describe the VRF as the fruit, rather than the flowering the tobacco plant. It is full of rich flavour, spicy without overpowering the palate. The burn is even and reliable. I judge an excellent cigar as one that absorbs the smoker and does not need liquid to soothe the tongue. The VRF is an excellent cigar and very hard to beat at the price. Impossible, perhaps.
