  • The Curivari Buenaventura Picadores Robusto is a medium to full-bodied Nicaraguan cigar offering classic Cuban-inspired balance with approachable depth.

    Measuring 5 inches with a 50 ring gauge, this robusto delivers approximately 45 minutes of smooth, flavour-driven smoking time. Crafted using 100% Cuban seed Nicaraguan tobaccos, the Picadores line follows traditional Cuban cigar-making methods, from fermentation through to rolling and finishing with a triple cap.

    Unlike the standard Buenaventura line, the Picadores is a mixed filler blend, providing excellent value while maintaining Curivari’s signature flavour profile. The Jalapa-grown Habano wrapper adds a touch of natural spice and richness to the smoke.

    The Buenaventura range from Curivari is crafted using traditional Cuban cigar-making techniques, including careful fermentation and hand finishing. All tobaccos are Cuban seed grown in Nicaragua, blended to replicate the balance and aroma of classic Cuban cigars.

    The Picadores line offers a more accessible entry point into the Buenaventura range while retaining the brand’s commitment to flavour, aroma and construction quality.

  • The Picadores Robusto opens with smooth tobacco sweetness supported by notes of milk chocolate and roasted almond. The draw is easy and produces generous smoke, with a clean, steady burn.

    Through the middle third, earthy and woody tones develop, accompanied by a gentle white pepper warmth on the retrohale. The profile remains balanced and approachable without excessive strength.

    In the final third, the cigar deepens slightly with richer roasted notes and a touch of bitterness, typical of a robusto at this price point. Overall, the experience delivers satisfying flavour progression and excellent value.

  • Curivari is known for producing Nicaraguan cigars using authentic Cuban seed tobaccos and traditional methods. The brand focuses on balanced flavour and aroma rather than overpowering strength, creating cigars that appeal to both experienced smokers and those seeking refined character in a classic format.

Reviews

Customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Curivari Buenaventura Picadores Robusto for its exceptional value and consistent quality, often comparing it favourably to more expensive or Cuban cigars. While many enjoy its rich, evolving flavour profile, some note a tendency for bitterness in the final third, which is a common characteristic for robustos at this price point.
Ideal for those seeking a reliable, flavourful, and budget-friendly daily smoke or a great introduction to cigars, especially if you appreciate Cuban-esque profiles.

Glad to report Curivari continues to thumb its nose at sticks over twice their price. This Robusto, and the Corona are 'must stock' items for me. I have never had the slightest problem with these cigars. Perfect burn, lovely construction/wrappers, plenty of smoke from a perfect draw. This is not a smoke to sit there po faced scratching your chin trying to find the subtle flavours of Grandma's handbag but rather chatting away with a group of friends and a couple of beers they become a part of the enjoyment. I would definitely rate them slightly on the mild side of medium progressing to the fuller side as it progresses. I probably wouldn't rate it as a morning smoke/ breakfast cigar but after lunch right through to dinner no problem. That said, I think this is an easy one to pair. A cold beer or wine with lunch, absolutely great with a double espresso and enough going on to finish with a dark spiced rum or a gentle, non petty malt. Profile for me was uncomplicated, simply a nice well rounded flavour with very gentle spice, hardly makes your nostrils tingle on the retro! No monumental changes into the second third just continues to gently build. Final third the spice comes in but not aggressively and the flavour is quite full. I nubbed this to half an inch with no problem!! As affordability becomes more of a concern to many, to find a Robusto of this quality and reliability is a blessing. If you haven't tried them, do so, just remember it ain't no Cohiba, it's just a good value, well made and enjoyable cigar!!

I enjoyed this one more than I was expecting, i'd say it has a good rich habano flavour. Construction-wise it lit easily, burned well and evenly, but is quite soft to begin with. the draw was good though, i'll return to this one. Ideal for a beginner i'd think.

Lovely little cigar. Lasted just over an hour outside in slightly breezy conditions. Nice easy draw. Very even burn requiring no touch ups. Ash held well, about 15 minutes between each ash drop. Nice woody taste initially with a dark chocolate developing. Produced a good amount of thick smoke. I would say medium to strong in strength. Great value for anyone after a good smoke on a budget. Becoming one of my favourites.

Lovely smoke, that packs a punch! Just smoked this whilst walking the dog on a nice summers evening, very pleasant, was expecting it to be a little milder, nice dark chocolate notes, eat something first.

A rough start with an uneven burn and too much pepper for my taste. Quite tight a draw but not overly an issue. The flavours are definitely present with woody peppery notes and the ever so slightest hint of chocolate. Certainly not a bad cigar but nothing to write home about. Get them cheap and you'll be happy enough.
