Vegas Robaina Unicos BRE SEP 18 (FRW)

[Deeg]

Down to two of this six-pack left, and they've all been very good to excellent.  This specimen in particular boasted perfect construction - spot-on draw, even burn, almost no-maintenance for 90 minutes.  Lit up at my new secret hidey-hole in Kobe, where they don't even make you order a drink if you don't want to (though I did).  Good cigar spots in Kobe are few and far between, especially with closures due to the pandemic.

These are not the most complex cigars I've ever smoked, but what they do they do exceptionally well.  The taste is pure tobacco (something I often find in VRs), espresso, dark chocolate, and a fruit note that's distinctly berry-centric.  Not a ton of evolution in flavor, a slow ramp up from medium to medium-heavy in body.  Satisfying and relaxing all the way, a solid 91/100.

Great review! I have detected similar notes from Unicos when they are "on". Sounds like these are worthy of grabbing.
