Default Cigari Habano Robusto Cigar Review Video




This 5×50 stick offers a dark brown oily satin wrapper with minimal veins, invisible seams and a rich tobacco aroma. First light reveals an extremely tight draw, mild body flavors of a dry tobacco and minimal smoke production. The first third develops to a medium bodied oily tobacco with a touch of bitterness. The draw opened up slightly allowing very good smoke output with a short clean finish. 30 min in at the 1/2 way point the only change is the addition of a slight burnt caramel at the end of the draw. Burn is very good and slow, the ash holds on about 1/2″ at a time. Ending at 50 min, the last third added a minty flavor on the draw almost like a toothpaste, but not in a bad way. Video on the site.

Interesting flavor profile to say the least Bryan. Another great review, probably a pass for me

Who makes these, and what kind of tobacco do they use?
