Cohiba Blue Robusto cigar review

7/22/2026


Who doesn't know and recognize Cohiba as one of the most famous and best cigars?  I've smoked a lot of them and just realized I haven't written one review for them.  They ain't cheap but you will be guaranteed a perfectly rolled and smooth smoking experience. The Dominican brand always delivers a smooth smoking experience.  No, it's not like the Cuban brand, but still keeps the prestige of the name. 


I bought a 20 cigar sampler of all robustos, 5 of each flavor. This one is about a half inch longer than the other robustos and has a Honduran San Agustin sun grown wrapper with Honduran binder and Honduran, Dominican, and Nicaraguan fillers. I think it's been resting in my humidor a good year. 


Check out cigarbid.com for some deals. I think I paid about $3 a piece. Not bad considering they are almost $10 a stick at most websites. 

These have always burned good and keep an even burn without issue.  Lights up easy and instantly pulls a ton of smoke. It goes great with the Sazerac bourbon. 


Hondurans usually have a slight bite to them. I don't taste any bite, only a creamy and slight sweet, woodsy taste. And I mean right away. That's what you're paying for, great flavors 100% of the time.  Can't really start off better than this one. 

Burning great. Has a sweet and spicy flavor. I ran out of bourbon and had to switch to a flavored rum. The rum is way too sweet.  It makes this cigar taste like a Criollo. That's what I'd call it. I'd say this is the sweetest of the Cohibas. 


Still very smooth and still medium. Not mild like some of the lighter Dominican Cohibas. 


It's burning pretty quick. I think this one probably burns the same time amount as the other 3 Cohiba robustos but this one is a little longer and looser roll. Makes it pull more smoke and really brings out the smooth but dominant flavors. 


It's pretty damn strong now. Leaves a nice woodsy flavor with a good sweetness but not tingling your tongue. Just a bold flavor with subtle flavors on the edge. It's a flavor bomb that is still smooth and creamy. 


Super easy smoking. Great for a nice and warm Wednesday night. Got about 40 minutes into it and it's getting into the last third. 


I think it's changed flavors again. Now it is more cedary and darker. Similar flavors as before but more aftertaste now. Still good. Now kind of has that Honduran bite but a good one. 


It's definitely a perfectly rolled smoke. Is it worth $10. Yep. Will I buy again? I will. But I'd like a longer smoking one. But it may not be as good and this one lasted about an hour, which is enough. This one just delivers all its got and it is very satisfying. 

It's definitely a finger burner. Got to get your dollars worth and it pays you back with a fine finish. No harshness at all, just double shot of all of the said flavors.  Never hot, even until the end. A great finish.

Alec Bradley Superstition Robusto cigar review 2/23/26 Never had a bad Alec Bradley cigar. Even the ones I've gotten cheap have been excellent.  I think I got this one from a sampler, probably for cheap.  I think these are about $4 or $5 a stick.   It's a short smoke. Nicaraguan habana wrapper with binder and long filler of Nicaraguan, Honduran, and Dominican tobacco.  Starts off with a definite Nicaraguan flavor. Has that leathery, charred oak flavor, but definitely smooth. Just like all the other AB cigars I've smoked.  All different but different flavors and profiles.  Is it good the first inch? Hell yeah.  Did I mention it's cold out?  Yeah, about 28 now.  That's why I chose this short smoke.  By the fire it's not too bad.  And that's why you prepare your fire before. A propane torch a few minutes on your small pieces of wood, super hot in just a few minutes.  Pretty windy though. Bad smoking weather. But it's burning ...

Here you will find honest reviews about the cigars that I bought myself and smoked myself.  I like to enjoy a fine cigar 3 to 4 times a week, late at night, sipping on some fine bourbon or tequila.  I've been smoking cigars for over 20 years and I try to be unbiased and honest in my reviews.  You can't trust most of the reviews on the internet or posted on most retailer's websites.  I don't really care if some guy tastes every flavor of the dessert buffet on some crappy cigar.  I want to know if it was an enjoyable cigar that satisfied you and you want to smoke another one.  That's what I try to give you.   <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9914815924126887"      crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

Esteban Carreras Unforsaken Gordo cigar review

 Esteban Carreras Unforsaken Gordo cigar review  1/12/24 Finally a night not super cold. I'm going to smoke my 2nd one of these since my first one around Christmas.  This is a huge Nicaraguan smoke.  I like the larger sizes but this one is so big it hurts my jaw to try to put of teeth on it.  But for the price and amount of smoke you can get out of it,it a damn fine smoke, even it's like twice the thickness of a regular smoke.   It lights up easily and is pulling good.  Pretty mild at first with good cedar and sweetness.   Let me also go ahead and complain about the cedar sleeve, which I think all smokes should come with.  This one, however, seems to be stuck to the wrapper and you have to peel all of the bands off to get it off.  Make it easier to remove damn it.  Anyway, the cigar is smoking great these first 10 min.  Still mild and very smooth.  Like I said it's a huge smoke. It ain't just a thick one to get a...
