What It Tastes Like
Tasting notes for the 2020-dated Robusto have not appeared from any outlet we checked. StogieReview’s May 2013 first look at the 2008 vintage of this size found the flavors understated but pleasing and the construction excellent, without a score. Descriptions of the cigar mention cocoa, dark chocolate and sweet spice.
