Quick Smoke: Perdomo Habano Corojo Robusto
23 May 2009
Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.
With a clean Cuban-seed corojo wrapper, two beautifully ornate bands, and an approachable price point of $4-6 apiece, this Nick Perdomo, Jr. creation has the look of a real winner. It produces thick tufts of rich smoke that, as my colleague wrote in his review 19 months ago, include flavors of warm tobacco and spice. The combustion qualities of the five inch by 52 ring gauge Robusto are almost ideal, save for an overly flaky white ash. Try this slow-burning gem with a Sam Adams Summer Ale on a hot afternoon.
Verdict = Buy.

We could not be further off from each other on this smoke lol
I had the torpedo version of this a couple of weeks ago. Great stick for the price. I’d even do it with a light rum.
