Default Re: Robusto "A" Reviews/Discussion

Aesthetics: 3.5
good looking cigar, light med brown, silky wrapper, nice cap, probably triple but I'm half blind anymore

Pre-light Construction: 3.5
tent peg, if this was Cuban I'd be shaking in my boots but knowing it's an NC I know I can probably expect a good draw and lotta smoke from it

Post-light Construction/How it smoked: 2.9
draws well, good volume of smoke, running down one side about 3/4"

NOTES Flavor and strength – 1st 1/3:
graham cracker to the mouth, white pepper to the nose
NOTES Flavor and strength – 2nd 1/3:
pepper in the nose is quite heady, forced to let more go out the mouth, I'd say full nose smoking and medium mouth
NOTES Flavor and strength – Last 1/3:
graham cracker and odd dried shellfish shell, like glucosamine
Flavor and Strength: 2.4

Aftertaste/Finish: 2
ash

Aroma: 3
NC sour, typical and pleasant enough

General Comments:
eeehhhh, 'sOK but going on the side of offensive for being boring, borderline flavor and bad finish

Overall score for the cigar: 57.6666666666667 (tally from above) 2.2 (my overall score)

Recommendation: not
