Yesterday I smoked Trinidad Robusto T, that I got from my friend. I dont know boxcode, but it´s from early 2010, so quite young still.

Robusto was very nice; oily and firm to touch. A bit bumpy and veining but still good quality cuban. Smell at cold was quality cuban tobacco with tea and hint of chocolate.

1/3: Started with wooden notes; cedar with some exotic woods and burned sugar. Start was quite bitter and dusty. Fortunately cigar find itself quite fast. After the first half inch all coffee and cream with milkchocolate. Very smooth. Mediumlight.

2/3: Still very smooth, creamy. More typical Trinidad flavors: burned sugar and vanilla.

3/3: Last third cigar gathers all flavors together. At the end more coco and nuts. No harsnes or bitter - all coffee and cream with quality tobacco and caramel. Medium/mediumfull

Now I have tried all Trinidad vitolas and this robusto T was very nice and smooth. I think this robusto is quite ready to smoke even this young and doesn´t necessarily need or benefit meny years ageing like reyes and coloniales...?

89/90 - thinking of buying box of 12 :D

Thanks for the review, I do love the robusto, I find it a better smoke than the robust extra. Also what an incredible ashtray! Where did you buy it if you don't mind me asking? :lifepreserver:

Ashtray is Finnish porcelain from year 1928 and it was made by Arabia(Classic Finnish brand). This ashtray was designed for Finnish industrial director - commercial counsellor Julius Tallberg. Ashtreys were made small quantity and I´m not sure how meny are still left. I bought it secondhand and I´m very pleased with it :)

I couldn't have described the Trini Robusto T better myself. Truly an exceptionally good cigar. Thanks for sharing your review. Loved your photography.

I think I may need to revisit these, but not for a bit. Last one I had seemed to start getting a little sick

I really need to give these a try. Most everything I've heard about them has been very positive.

Thanks for the review and keep them coming :D
