, By: John Smith
  • Brand: Cohiba
  • Length: 5.5 inches (124 x 19.84 mm)
  • Ring: 50
  • Score: 4.5/5

General Information

The Cohiba Robusto belongs to the Cohiba Linea Clasica line. It's hand - made, from Cuba, weighs 11.66 g, and costs about $15 each.

Appearance

The wrapper shines and is oily. The pre - light aroma is sour, with hazelnut and almond scents. The pre - draw is comfortable with light butter notes, rated 5/5.

Construction

Production isn't 100% consistent. Sometimes, there are issues with burn and draw. But most of the time, it's well - rolled with no soft spots, rated 4/5.

Flavor

  • First puffs: strong and peppery. First third: toasty, with peppery and woody notes and a creamy finish.
  • Second third: cedary, round, creamy, with honey hints. Finish: bold and creamy cocoa notes, rated 5/5.

Value

It's slightly more expensive than other Cuban robustos, but it's rarely felt like overpaying, rated 4.5/5.

Although less consistent than some other cigars, it's worth having a box in the humidor due to its flavor.
