The Vegas Robaina Unicos is one of the two cigars of the homonymous brand. When the brand was presented to the public in 1997, five sizes were present in its portfolio. However, throughout the following twenty years, with the prominent Don Alejandro size’s exit, the Famosos and, precisely, the Unicos, a Piramide, are still produced. They are sold in classic 25-count Dress-Boxes.
Almost all the cigars of the brand are rolled in shiny wrappers, ranging from Colorado Claro, with reddish reflections, to Colorado, with brown reflections. They are smooth to the touch and without any pronounced veins. Construction and filling are great.

Vegas Robaina Unicos: unlit, aromas of wood, spices, and earth, all of equal intensity, are perceived.
Once lit, it plays between a delicate balance of sweetness and salty. It reveals important notes of earth and wood, enriched by hazelnut, less evident than the first. Strength is medium-light (2/5)
In the central section, the sapidity increases while the sweetness becomes gradually less until it disappears. Wood and hazelnut remain unchanged, while a nuance reminiscent of dried fruit appears. Strength remains unchanged (2/5).
In the last third, the sapidity and the woody note remain stable, while the evolution brings a strong mineral note and an increase in the intensity of the dried fruits to the palate. Strength increases, becoming medium (3/5).
Ultimately, the Vegas Robaina Unicos returns an intense and satisfying smoke. Although the evolution is not particularly pronounced and the aroma is limited in number, the complexity is noteworthy, and also the balance between strength and aroma is appreciable.
