I think that out of all of my reviews on this site, I`ve only given one cigar five stars. This is the second five star cigar I`ve smoked - and for my money, this may just be the perfect Havana cigar. Comparisons are, of course, odious, but I`m afraid that this leaves the Diplomaticos #2 for dead and is a much more refined and smooth smoke than a Monte #2 - which, when consistent, is a fine cigar indeed. The Vegas Robaina Unicos is a mild to medium cigar with medium flavour - not quite as "in yer face" as its` Monte cousin. Montes are interesting smokes, but the Unicos are smooth as buttah in comparison. A woody and leathery taste - perfect draw (three months in the humi) - I absolutely can not rate this cigar higher and it is, without doubt, my favourite Havana smoke. Perfect with a 10 year old Talisker - or anything, for that matter. Go try some. You won`t be disappointed.
