Appearance
The cigar has a cute and perfectly applied pig - tail end, and a warm - brown shaded wrapper. There were no protruding veins, and it was smooth and silky to the touch. However, the foot was slightly damaged during transportation.
Construction
It was almost perfectly rolled, well - filled, and had a perfect draw. The ash was dense and non - flaky. It fell off by itself after about the first inch, leaving an almost perfectly shaped cone, and only fell off two more times through its length. The burn was not perfectly even.
Flavor
- Pre - draw: spice and green tea
- First third: roasted nuts, herbs, coffee, white pepper, vanilla, with a pleasant herbaceous aftertaste
- Second third: more spices, but the smoke remained smooth
- Last third: earthy undertones, sometimes vanilla, a powerful spicy profile and Cuban twang
Value
It's an expensive cigar. While it may not fit personal preferences in terms of strength, fans of powerful cigars will feel they spent their money well.
The Trinidad Robustos Extra is hand - made, with a wrapper, binder, and filler all from Cuba. It's a medium - full flavored cigar, and each costs around €22.
