Quick Smoke: Augusto Reyes Sixth Generation Robusto

Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,” “hold,” or “sell.”

This cigar has been sitting in my humidor since the 2010 IPCPR Trade Show. The well-constructed robusto features a Nicaraguan wrapper, a Dominican binder, and a combination of Nicaraguan and Dominican filler tobaccos, as well as flavors of cedar, earth, coffee, and a bit of sweet toffee. It is medium-bodied smoke and relatively well-balanced. Given the approachable price point of about $5 per stick, I’m impressed with what the Augusto Reyes Sixth Generation Robusto has to offer.

Verdict = Buy.
