going to try to find someone that has a five pack online that I can try. Sounds like with a little resting in a humidor it might be a tasty smoke...good review

I had the Robusto Saturday at the local shop. For $3.00 it was an outstanding smoke. I'll definitely grab a handfull next time I'm there.

Thanks for the heads up.






Peace.

Same here. I've smoked about 6 of these now and like you said Pmp, the good ones are awesome the others are just ok. I guess for the price they're still worth it and they're a stick that's out of the norm for me so I enjoy the change up which probably helps them taste a little better to me. Overall, I'd still reccomend these smokes.

I'm smoking another one of these right now and really enjoying it. I guess thats about all you can say of these smokie. When they are hot, they are hot.

That's sure the way it seems. I smoked a couple over the weekend and both were great.

For what it's worth I'm about two-thirds into the Robusto right now. I have to admit, at the price I am pleasantly surprised!

I smoked my first today thanks to PMP. The first 2/3 were very good, not as full as I was expecting, but tasty. The last third, the wrapper began to crack, it started getting very hot, and it wouldn't stay lit, almost like it was overhumidified. The next one I have, maybe I'll leave it out of the dor for 45 minutes before I put flame to foot. Thanks for a nice suprise though P.


Go Beavs!

I think these need some rest to them. The first one I had thanks to PMP was just ok and didnt want to burn for sum reason. I have another from him and will let it sit for 2-3 months and then spark it up. It seems like they just need to settle for a bit Wink

The ones I have now, that have been sitting in the humi for a while are great. At first though, they were very spotty. For the price though, these are a dynamite deal.

I agree that they need some age. Mine haven't been sitting as long as Pmpimbura's but even just the humi time they've had has made a big improvement. They're still kinda inconsistant but hopefully some age will help that because they good ones are awesome smokes.
