A fantastic but misunderstood cigar. The conclusions of bitter and draw problems which are bandied about around these cigars are invariably due to inadequate aging. These cigars have been designed to be fantastic in coming decades and have been blended with the raw materials to provide this: tannins (which are bitter when cigars are young) and oils (which cause draw problems in unaged cigars), so it is unfair to say these are poor cigars. They may not smoke well now, but keep a box for 10 years and prepare to be amazed! written by Big Ed

A really liked this smoke its perfectly made, draws excellent and burns slow with a wonderful white ash. It started earthy and melded into a coffee,honey and nuts flavor. The finish was a sweet, spicy, but a bit short. written by Michael

Frankly disappointing given its reputation and the rest of the line. Developed bitter and harsh notes toward the last third. Probably deserves another chance, but the Unicos are a safer bet. written by JM USA

A cigar which is too big for its own good. Its woody initial flavour turns bitter halfway through, while the draw is not really exceptional. For the Robaina fan, I think. written by Mihai nte that

Basically a good smoke, although I expected much more than what I experienced. The draw was quite good, there were no traces of harshness, it burned well and had a mild, pleasant taste. The problem was that there was no richness, complexity or real substance. Probably deserves a 3.5/5 - but certainly no more. written by rubyz

Wonderful bouquet from this Robaina wrapped Prominente that features a firm draw, some earth and mild spice notes, with medium strength. Its major malfunction is that it tends to turn bitter at midpoint. written by ca
