Vegas Robaina Famosos

Vegas Robaina Famosos

Vegas Robaina Famosos 1600 900 Giuseppe Mitolo

The Vegas Robaina Famosos was released in 1997 when the brand was officially introduced to the world. It is one of the few cigars in the Cuban portfolio to have as a vitola de Galera a Hermoso No. 4. Currently, the Famosos and Unicos are the only products of the brand after the discontinuation of three of the five sizes presented at the launch.

It has always been sold in a dress box of 25 units, although there have been 3-count cardboard boxes (discontinued in 2006) and 5-count cardboard boxes (discontinued in 2009).

Visually it is dressed in bright Colorado wrapper with brown reflections but also reddish sometimes. The wrapper relatively smooth to the touch, with pretty light veins, and the overall construction is excellent, as is the draw.

  • Country of Origin: Cuba
  • Size: 48 x 127 mm (5″)
  • Wrapper: Cuba
  • Binder: Cuba
  • Filler: Cuba

Vegas Robaina Famosos

Vegas Robaina Famosos: well-defined aromas of hazelnut, wood, and vegetal notes are perceived in the cold draw, enriched by a nuance of white pepper.

Vegas Robaina Famosos

Once lit, the cigar appears sapid on the palate with a sweet hint. The profile is characterized by an intense earthy note, which leaves room for less evident hints of black pepper and nuts. Strength is medium (3/5).

In the central section, the palatal structure and strength (3/5) are confirmed, while the flavors are based on notes of nuts (where hazelnut stands out), wood, and an earthy nuance.

The last third is a long continuation of the central section. Sometimes, toasted and leathery notes are recorded in the last puffs in some samples.

The Vegas Robaina Famosos returns a more than satisfying smoke. The medium strength allows it to be appreciated by a broad spectrum of cigar lovers: the new smoker will find a slightly more robust cigar, while the seasoned smoker will choose it for an undemanding, but not trivial, smoke. The flavor profile is appreciable, although a broader evolution would allow it to aspire to higher marks.
