Shape: Petit Robusto
Appearance:
The Hoyo Petit Robusto is a well constructed cigar, with a wrapper the shade of tan bark that is smooth and free of veins or wrinkles. The bunch is solid and the cap is perfectly applied.
Smoking Notes:
Before lighting up
Pre-light draw is perfect with strong aromas of fruit and spices. Reminds us of the glory days of Cuba (Pre-Castro small cigars like Rey Del Mundo Royal Serie No.3).
Burn/ Draw
The cigar lights up easy and draws very well from the beginning. A nice smooth draw throughout with a little touch up required to even out the burn. Burns cool throughout.
Initial third:
The cigar starts out with a little pepper, wood and earth with hints of leather. Starts the way some cigars start their final third. A small puff yields a mouthful of luscious smoke.
Middle third:
By the middle it turns to sweet hay more fruit and leather with some tobacco in the background.
Final third:
By the end, it gets great, rounded out with a meaty, sautéed mushrooms and tobacco flavor. No bitterness detected at all. You hate for it to end while you burn your fingers.
We cannot stop smoking the last part even if we had to burn our fingers. A great cigar.
Smoking time:
45 - 60 Minutes

By Bill - I had only tried the Nicaraguan copies of the Robusto. These were similar with stronger flavor but not harsh. Really enjoyed the extra taste.

This is a great smoke. It is mild, but provides plenty of flavor. The amount of smoke is substantial and is packed with several flavors: mild cocoa and coffee, dried fruits, and some cream.
Fantastic for a morning smoke. -

"We cannot stop smoking the last part even if we had to burn our fingers. A great cigar."
This holds true. I was first introduced to this little fat monster in Malaysia duty free in packs of 3. Never expected it to taste as good as the epi 2.
Taught me a lesson, never judge a cigar by its size.
