i got a few different sizes of this brand as freebies from mark at tower, and he wanted to know what i thought, so here's what i think of the robusto...
pretty darn good.
seriously, full flavored, with dark roasted bean flavors, along with that barely-used descriptor... "tobacco." a little chalky on the finish, which is fairly common with real dark maduros these days (similar to an el cobre finish). not overly complex, but a fine and straightforward maduro smoke. great construction and draw, and a pretty cool little band, too. i think this was a special brand made for just a couple of stores, but i'm sure mark can fill us in on that info.
thanks again, bro, for the brilliant service and very high quality bonus sticks.
