Review notes: got a stick from a friend, nicely shaped torpedo, burned evenly throughout, flavor was decent, however not on the strong side, good overall smoke, however would recommend Upmann No 2 if you are looking for a torpedo with stronger flavors and a nice kick at the end. |

Review notes: This is by far one of the best pyramides I have ever smoked. I bought this cigar not expecting much but the second I lit it up I experienced smooth chocalatly taste with hints of cedar and spice. Goes extremely well with cognac. |

Review notes: This is a box that when you open it, it sets you back in your chair. Gorgeous, oily maduro wrappers, majestic appearance. As Edicion Limitadas you would spend $500 for this box and be glad, thinking you had a steal. Now mind you I realize not all boxes are going to look like this but this is what greeted me when I lifted the lid. Old style, old fashioned, deep Habano leather, earth and vegetal tones, including dark cocoa and even licorice, made me think I was smoking a Havana from the 50's. Where's my Fedora? |

Review notes: This torpedo from Vegas Robaina is much more flavourful than the overated, overpriced Montecristo #2. Quality control is the major reason that this cigar is more consistant, more flavourful with a better draw then the infinately better known #2. The Vegas Robaina Unicos is produced in only one factory on the island, the Montecristo #2 in a half dozen. Vegas Robaina produces approximately 200,000 of these babies annually, Montecristo is now pumping out over 2 million #2's per annum. Vegas Robaina allows only it's most experienced rollers to produce the Unicos. Out of necessity due to sheer volume Montecristo is forced to use less experienced rollers. This is why the Unicos is much more predictable than the #2. Every box of Unicos are rolled with the same care, quality and experience. When you buy a box of these babies you know what you are getting. They also do not have nearly as bad a counterfiting problem as the #2. The only Cuban that is counterfit more than the #2 is the Cohiba Espandido. The Unicos is not quite as good as the San Cristobal Mauralla (which in my humble opinion is the best torpedo made) but then the Mauralla is considerably more expensive (if you are prepared to sacrifice quality for price) a compromise I personally refuse to make. |

Review notes: These pyramids are the first Vegas I have ever smoked. An extremely positive experience. Excellent combustion and a smooth, nutty note with good earthiness and a very smooth finish. You can smoke it nearly to the butt with minimal harshness, what the Cubans call " veneno". You will not be disappointed. |

Review notes: These cigars will look and smell beautiful out of the box. A nice cedar and tobacco aroma will begin to linger off the foot when you first toast it. Then a nice tobacco taste will begin mixed in with hints of espresso. The flavor gets real complex and inch down and one will notice a woody-leathery taste that isn't overbearing. A strong finish but not one that it too powerful. |

Review notes: At this time, the cigar is at its peak in flavor in my mind, however this cigar will continue to age beautifully, the tannins have calmed down, this cigar is not for everyone. It is "old school Havana" flavor and strength. The cigar burns perfect and the dark wrapper is a wonder to look at.The flavors are very complex and vast.Creamy Coffee,cocoa, earth and wood are all there at various times. This should be in every serious Cuban cigar collection. Not as well known as the other famous names thus you may be fortunate to get vintage dates at regular prices. OOPs I let the cat out of the bag. |
