First Impressions: Cuvee Blanc Robusto

Seeing as how I don't smoke enough to be doing full reviews on a real consistent basis, I've come up with this idea to give an opinion on stuff that's new on the market or just new to me. The cigar isnt going to be scored on a point scale but with Hit, Bust, or Push. Well, without further adieu, here's my First Impression of the Cuvee Blanc robusto by Cusano.

This 5x50 Connecticut shade wrapped robusto has a very smooth wrapper with small veins and a light oily sheen. The foot smells of cedar and sweet cream and after toasting lights up to a creamy and nutty charachter. The smell from the foot of the cigar before it was lit is almost identical to the flavor of the smoke; woody, nutty, and creamy. The burn light is sharp, but a little uneven and the ash is a very light gray, almost white. The draw was nice and smooth throughout producing ample amounts of heavy smoke. At an MSRP of only 8 bucks it's a very flavorful mild to medium cigar.

Final Verdict-Hit

  1. Terp, your hit or bust is a great idea! I don't have time to read full reviews, but I like to know what others think.
