Bahnofstrasse Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 My 2 favorite current release cigars right now are the RA Extra and these H. Upmann Royal Robustos. I smoked many singles of both these this past week out of the LCDH Zurich. The Royal Robusto is a big flavor Cigar starting medium full then finishing full. Classic Upmann flavor profile, deep and rich, well worth the pricepoint of 13.5chf per marca. 90 minutes of smoking pleasure. Do yourselves a favor and find some of these limited gems via a LCDH.
Manny Sotelo Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 That for share. are you willing to sell/trade 1 or 2? Pm me if interested.
Schumi5 Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Could not agree more! Have had a couple of the RR and they are brilliant! One of the more rustic wrappers I have seen but they deliver a truly memorable smoking experience.
almudawi Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I am kicking my self for not picking a couple of boxes up while I was in Berlin... The specialist at the LCDH over there insisted on buying at least a box but I passed.. And what makes things worse is that I can't seem to find them here in Bahrain.. Sighhhhhhhh
sharks Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Yer been chasing these royal robustos for awhile now. Seem hard to come by especially here in Aus. Sharks
Hash Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I smoked one single of the RA Extra LTD. it was excellent,I bought two boxes,they are resting in my Humidor,those Royal Robusto look fantastic,must buy.Thank you for sharing.
Pilgrims Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I had one a few month back and this is what I thought then... "It had a great dark but not too dark wrapper, lovely construction, perfect draw, a touch too wide in gauge for me but it is what it is so that unavoidable. The burn was good , initially rich strong tea with a touch of cream. It than got fuller at end of 1st third, up to medium or just above. It tasted young but very good too, tea like finish with grass too. Final third, quite punchy and more coffeed...rich tobacco. Needs a bit more time...89 now potential for 92+, well worth seeking out."
Habanos2000 Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I have to say that the Upmann line is simply amazing with the quality and consistency they put out lately. If I could only smoke Upmann's the rest of my life I'd be a happy man. thanks for the review and I'm going to search for some of these as well!
RollsMD Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Friend of mine gifted me one last month. I've been staring at it as they look greet, trying to resist
Lotusguy Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Thanks for the review. I just ordered another 3 boxes yesterday but the same day I had to cancel my Amex card due to some fraudulent charges hope I don't loose my place in line with that order while I wait for the replacement card to arrive.
Habanakane21 Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I was lucky... Got me a box several months ago.. Figured they'd be good. Havent smoked one. Box still closed and sealed. Not in any hurry to open and smoke one. But great to hear they're winners.
jedipastor Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Looks awesome! These and the RAs are the two new cigars this year that I really want to try. These are a regular LCDH release, and not an LE, right?
