Greatest Robusto ever created

[Smokecigareveryday]

To me- Bolivar Royal Corona. 

[NSXCIGAR]

I prefer the Prince Charles. 

[Habana Mike]

Depending on the box CoRo, RASS or PSD4. BRC a close 4th for me....

I have too few of these left. One of my favourite AP Regionals, Only edged out by the 2010 PL Encantos AP RE.

Hoarding the last few remaining, like I am hoarding my 06 CoRos.

for me, getting very specific if i may, on one of the early trips to havana, i was talking to Hamlet and he kindly agreed to find a cracker box of CoRos for me. he did. he searched through plenty and came up with a box where pretty much every smoke was magic. the only ones i have ever had to challenge them was on another trip when Hamlet himself had just rolled a bundle of robustos. i remember buying about 30 of them ($3 a stick) to take home. but weakened and smoked a few and they were so good, i'd knocked off almost the lot before the end of the week. fortunately he was still rolling and i could restock. and despite my best efforts, they didn't last long at home.

Best Robustos is the SC La Fuerza after the first 17 mm burns off.

from my memory , a coro smoked in 1996-in my earky 20s!-, still remember the intense grassy and heavy aroma, very different than modern cohibas(we were in the old tobacco variety), after that I was lucky to have a reserva 2002 cohiba selection box, the robusto from that box was really out of this world

I've never had one of the travel case Upmanns,  so I cant really comment,  but people sure got very frothy about them whilst they were around. 

[Mr. Japan]

Bolivar  & Ramon Allones for a good full smoke.

Of the robustos I've smoked, Dunhill Cabinetta.

Oh my, I remember these. And yes, they were bloody darn good.

Coro, hopefully being followed by the Diplo Norteños. If the norteños become anything like the Spain RE colleccion privada, I’m going to dance every time I smoke one. They’re like your mother’s love. I’m so sad I didn’t buy 25 boxes of those. I’m not making that mistake on the norteños. Going deep like whoa on these.

You beat me to the punch.  Not only the best robusto ever made, but one of the best cigars ever made, regardless of vitola.  As you can tell by my avatar, I have a certain affection for this cigar.

But, of the currently attainable cigars, I have to say the PSD4.

PSD4s have stood the test of time as being consistently good, reasonably affordable, robustos that have long been a staple in the humidor of many many Cuban cigar smokers.  I love Bolivar Royal Coronas.  I love CoRos, and have had some that have blown away most PSD4s that I have smoked, but they are not consistent.  When I take out a PSD4, I know that I am going to enjoy the cigar.  It may not blow my sox off, though occasionally, they do, but I know I am never going to regret choosing it.

CORO, RASS, and JL2 are my fav regular sized Robustos!

I had a few of the Monte Cristo Robusto LE 2000, I think. Those were very good cigars. I'm inclined to differentiate between special releases and regular production. I don't go for the best as much as what I like the best and I like them all when the box is on.  A good CORO well kept for over five years is a real treat. I'm inclined to think that the inconsistencies of Cuban cigars necessitates one to pick cigars by production quality rather than marka and vitola. I've had boxes of PSD#4s that blew the doors off of the COROs I was burning through. But I've had a couple of boxes of COROs that were truly outstanding. Right now I'm loving RASS MUR 2/13. 

[Puros Y Vino]

My go to is the PSD4. But......my all time favourite would have to be the Trinidad Robusto T.

[Smokecigareveryday]

I have just ordered a box of RASS.  Hopefully It does not need  aging, for I don't age my cigars.

I traded away 30 Fonseca 1’s and Dip 2’s for one of these travel humidors two years ago ... best trade ever.  I’d do it again in a heartbeat!  Probably the best Cuban robusto I’ve ever had and the humidor is a constant companion of mine on every trip!

I should rephrase!  It was a 25-count box of Fonseca 1’s + 5 Dip 2’s!

thank god, now it makes sense.    especially when there are some dreamers trying to sell the empty cases for £180

Can't believe I'm the first person to say Connie 1.

Caveats: I'm not a big robusto fan in the first place, but I've had my share of all the regular production.  I do love anything Bolivar.  But I picked up a 2016 box of connie 1 off the auctions, and good lord, they make my mouth water just thinking about them.
