H.Upmann Robusto EL 2012 LAR NOV 12: Weekend Review

[Optic101]

H.Upmann Robusto EL 2012 LAR NOV 12

Darker shade oily wrapper

Easy draw at cold with hay notes

Paired with water.

Initial draw:

Rich full smoke volume with a medium strength flavor.

Hay, coffee, leather, a hint of salt.

After a few puff, strength down to lower medium

More salty on the lips, Leather is getting stronger, coffee getting more green.

Cigar needs quite a bit of attention, likes to go out very fast.

Slight uneven burn, some construction issues

2nd.

Smoother now, stable in strength, dark chocolate, toasted tobacco

3rd

Dark Espresso, milk chocolate, licorice, nuts

The best part of the cigar !

Smoking time 1hr 20 min.

Conclusion:

Much better than the last one I had in Oct. 14.

Would guess another 1 better 2 years to shine.

Thanks for reading.

Nice review Werner.

Not a lot of fanfare on this one initially. I think it's turned a corner lately.....
