Vegas Robaina famosos

[cigarmo]

Anyone tried one of these, not had anything from the brand before would like to know what people think of them

[cj121]

Not had any for a few years, but those I did we're bloody marvellous. You'll no doubt get some more contemporary feedback in the thread.

i am partial to a VR famosos....... the best way i can describe them are rustic, earthy, leathery cigars..... flavours i picked up were nutty, honey, cocoa, coffee, vanilla...... medium bodied cigars!! i've about 10 left from a 25 box i bought maybe a year or 2 ago!! mind you, a few from that box were pretty tightly rolled and didn't produce a lot of smoke!! pairs up great with cafe direct's 'mayan palanque' coffee.....

i'm pretty sure i reviewed these on here, i'll see if i can find the link!!!

Always really enjoyed all the Robaina cigars I have smoked. Underrated is how I would describe the flavour.

+1 on Nic's post, never had a bad VR.

Smoked a bunch of the pyramid '?nico' when I was last in Cuba and loved them all.

Haven't smoked in a while? Am I able to use the description of "musky dirt and earth"? In a good way?

When I read the title I knew Alex would have a few words to say!
I've tried 3 or 4 now and they are always on the box purchase list but others keep jumping them in the queue!

Great cigars. If you get the chance hunt out the Spanish regional edition robusto sized one.

[cigarmo]

Thanks for the input everyone will get a box for the humi

[AdamK]
