Review by Puroexpress:
The Flores y Rodriguez 18th Anniversary Robusto commands attention with its reddish, oily cover leaf, hinting at the richness within. The smoking experience is dominated by deep, resonant flavors of leather, earth, and coffee bean, with sweet undercurrents of molasses and a hint of herbs. The finish is gracefully adorned with a touch of raisin, adding a subtle complexity to the robust profile.
This robusto is meticulously constructed, ensuring an open draw and mostly even combustion, which allows for a full appreciation of its intricate flavors. This medium-full strength cigar is ideal for those who enjoy a rich, textured smoke filled with evolving flavors that maintain a smooth and satisfying progression from start to finish.
