The Vegas Robaina Únicos is a striking figurado measuring 156 mm by 52 ring gauge, cloaked in a supple, oily colorado maduro wrapper.
At the cold draw, it unveils forest-like and animalistic notes, edged with a subtle bitterness.
The first third opens with roasted and grilled flavors that quickly develop into rich woody tones. The strength begins to assert itself toward the end of this stage.
The second third shows a somewhat temperamental burn, with a nervier profile than last year’s. The aromatic palette leans into forest and light cocoa notes, accented by delicate hints of caramel.
In the final third, the smoke grows astringent, requiring a purge. The cigar then offers a spicy and overly powerful finish in the last puffs.
Conclusion: Rarely seen in retail, this Únicos is livelier than before, earning half a ring back. However, minor combustion issues and a somewhat messy last third keep it from reaching the highest accolade.
