Vegas Robaina Famosos 2018 (PRRRW)

[Wilzc]

 

Light chocolate brown colored wrapper. Really nice smelling cigar at cold.

 

First few puffs very Monte. But sweeter. Milk chocolate. Oakey. Woody. Draw is excellent, smoke output is high for a Cuban. Sliiiight spice on the middle of the tongue. Just slight.

 

Footsmoke is sweeeet!

 

Burn is wavy. Wrapper-binder looks thick.

 

 

Second third, Cookie dough. Bready. Dried Grass. Baking spices on the retrohale.

 

Final third not so great. Not great at all. Things got grassy and herbaceous. Smoke output lessens. Burn is really struggling. Just going through the motions now before I put the cigar down slightly over an inch from the cap.

 

Final thoughts: 86-91 points. The first half shows what the cigar can be (91) while the second half shows what the cigar is at the moment. Needs some time. And maybe even then, probably not the best example of a famosos.

Great review

My box of Famosos was (eventually) one of my best ever.  Lush and opulent was how I'd describe them once hit their stride.  Very rich, deep and bittersweet.

Smoked one this morning from an old sampler pack and it was perfect in every way.

Nice review! Might be a bit young?
