Rocky Patel Burn Robusto
Image
Wrapper, binder, and filler are all Honduran
MSRP: 8.50
Appearance: chocolate brown wrapper with tight seams and a dense pack.
Prelight: Nice sweet barnyard smell. Cold draw is a mild chocolate flavor.
First 3rd: Very loose draw and very good smoke output. First light is an aged tobacco and bitter chocolate taste. The bitterness fades and the flavors are a sweet spice, mild/med at the most.
Second 3rd: flavors are pretty consistent throughout the second third just a sweet spice. The foot smoke is very pleasant with smells very similar to the draw flavors, still mild/med.
Final 3rd: The burn has been razor sharp throughout and flavors have been very consistent, Med in flavor. The sweetness did ramp up a bit on the nub, this would be a nice after dinner cigar.
Total burn time: 45 min
Flavor: mild/med
Strength: mild/med
Conclusion: I might buy another stick or two of these, but I don’t think ill be buying a box. A little too plain for me.

Excellent review, i should also note that what you smoked was the Burn napels, which is very different from the Burn that is sold through official rocky patel lounges.
