I tried my first one today, also a Robusto.
Reminded me a lot of a fresh Padron 2000.
Spicy start, cocoa aftertaste, but a bit more woodiness in the finish after the halfway mark than a Padron.
Good burn, draw was fine.
Just think I'd rather have the Padron 2000 instead (shrug).

I ran over to Party Source in Newport (ky) and was handed one of these by a gent in the humidor. He asked if I had one and told him I was looking for something to get me through the 2hr drive home and the Traviata was the call. I'm not too sure about the claim of 'full' but I liked the cigar. It had nice smoke and flavor and kept me interested on the drive.

I think I'll have another and then decide if I want to invest in a box. A thumbs up for 1st impressions.
