A selection of fine, ripe Virginia tobaccos is enhanced with the perfect measure of Maduro cigar leaf to provide an alluring spice, the suggestion of richness of a great cigar, and a creamy smoke. A little Cyprian Latakia adds roundness and smooths the edges, while fine Oriental tobaccos fill in the gaps. Complex and full flavored, yet very gentle on the tongue, Robusto is perfect with afternoon coffee, as a delicate finish to a wonderful meal, or as a stout and stalwart companion throughout the day.
