Richard's Past experience:

The “King of Robustos” is still here. The ideal burning, a perfect combination of strength and flavor, incredible construction and most importantly, consistency in quality has made this the quintessential Robustos. Right from the start the strength and flavors of spice, wood and even wine perfectly mingle with the palate. There is even a hint of clove thrown in the mixer. This is a smooth and creamy cigar with great depth and variety, all of which comes in a pocket sized package ! I think of these little babies as my companion for life.

"The Cohiba Robusto is an expensive smoke for this admittedly frugal cigar purchaser. That is not to say it isn't a really good smoke, beautifully constructed and rich in flavors ranging from espresso, spice to a hint of cocoa. As a smoke it rates a 5 but due to its cost I've rated it lower. These are clearly a splurge or celebration cigar for me and on a daily basis Partagas Series 'D' or Ramon Allones 'Specially Selected' are my cigars of choice. Besides, I can buy two boxes of those for the price of one box of these. Oh, one last thing, this is definitely a cigar to enjoy after a grilled Porterhouse steak and rich cabernet."

"I have been smoking for the past 20 years. I have been fortunate enough to have enjoyed an ample share of Cuban cigars. I purchase Montecristo's and Bolivar's, and if I could afford it this robusto would be my cigar of choice. It is simply the most satisfying cigar I have ever experienced."

"A very good Robusto indeed...but can one really justify the fact that it is so expensive? My view regarding COHIBA is intact: they are overpriced cigars for snobs. How can this cigar be priced in line with Montecristo's limited edition robustos which are a much better smoke? For the money, the Juan Lopez no. 2 is the true king of robustos, in my humble opinion..."

"Very good cigar, strong. High quality made, draft is not complicated,
the cigar have intensive good taste. In the beginning wood, herbal,
in the end taste - grains of coffee, chocolate.
Very pleasant combination to cognac "Martell Cohiba" , cigar and cognac supplement each other,
there is a new pleasant taste."

"My favorite smoke. Beautifully made..flavors are flawless for my taste. full flavor from first to last puff without EVER getting harsh on me. This really is a cigar that doesnt need to be aged (obviously, age is always good) to be FANTASTIC. The price (everywhere) is the only reason I didn't give it a 5."

"This is a great robusto. Had one a few weeks ago from a Seleccion Robustos box (GKI-JUL.04). The taste was superb but though the draw was very tight. The taste of clove was very strong. Bought a box of ten from Richard that I received this week (AVD-NOV.05 ), the taste was completely different. Still good, but not nearly as sweet. I did not taste the clove in these as I did with the one from the Seleccion Robustos box. Very nice taste though, earthy with a very long, spicy finish. These also have a MUCH better draw. They have only been in the humidor a few days. I think I'll let these sit for a good while before I revisit them. If I could combine the draw and finish of these from Richard with the sweet clove taste of the one from the Seleccion Robustos, defintely would be a 5+."

"Time to eat some crow (followed by a Cohiba robusto) I reviewed these here not too long ago that was based on my prior experience with these cigars, and it was less than enthusiastic. How wrong I was...I received a box (NRZ-ENE.05) a month ago, and I am in love with this cigar. Loaded with spice, cedar and dark coffee bean flavors as well as ultra-rich tobacco flavors. Construction is top-drawer...I've had not one that smoked, burned or drew less than perfect. I still think they are overpriced, but all Cohibas are. I am a big fan of this vitola, and have 4 different brands in my humidor right now, and in my opinion this cigar even outsmokes the Patagas D4. Thank you very much, Richard...time for me to maybe smoke less and enjoy it more?"

"I Thought this Robusto was pretty good with a smooth creamy taste. Hints of coffee at the begging of the cigar. A little expensive but definatley worth it"

"One of my favourites. Very rich and spicy, perfect taste until the end, I also enjoy the smell of this cigar unlightened, wonderful!"

"Overpriced, the Partagas Rubstos were far better and half the price. I give it 88-90 points, for 370/box, keep shopping."

"I know I'm asking for a good butt-kickin' by NOT saying this is the yardstick to which all robustos are measured, but...what the heck, in my opinion, it's true. I've puffed at least 50 of these over the years, and the percent of side-winders and plugged sticks is way higher than it should be, in my opinion. Tastes wonderful, but to me it's overpriced."

"Probably the finest cigar I have ever smoked. Powerful yet subtle, this cigar made me consider larger vitoles. Out of the 50+ I have smoked, none have disappointed me. Mildly spiced with a classic final."
