CoRo EBO JUN 20 (CLvROWAS)

[Boxer31]

My fav robusto has always been the D4 and RASS. That all changed about 3-4 yrs ago. Had a couple of CoRo. They just seemed to be on another level. 

Now the CoRo is in top 3 with Lusi & Sir Win. Kicking myself for not getting more when had the chance. Just over a box left and going to ration these. 

Aroma was sweet tobacco, hay, citrus and faint smell of expresso

Cold draw hay/grass, expresso, shortbread cookie

Nice warm night so no need to rush this. 

First third - very smooth almost sweet expresso and then dry hay/wood.   - cedar/sweet tobacco, some citrus 

2nd and last third - sweet expresso still there w/cream, orange citrus (reminds me of valcencia - in season now and so fresh OJ everyday ) getting more of the shortbread cookie - wife made orange/cranberry biscotti for Easter & Easter bread (which is a sweet tasting bread).  So it was prob a mix of those to flavors

Not a lot of transitional flavors but the ones I get don’t need them to change. The CoRo has been always been spot on, taste, burn. 

 

Solid 94 - I get these!!!!

Excellent review 

I sometimes make the mistake of not selecting a Cohiba Robusto because I am looking for something fuller bodied.  That is a mistake on my part because I fail to take into account a Cohiba Robusto's richness.  I always feel satisfied.

This is why I love the Medio Siglo - it’s like an extra rich CoRo. I just wish they were half an inch longer.

I love the Valencia call, too cool.

You are right, CoRos almost always have many more facets than a D4.

Always enjoy smoking a Cohiba Robusto. Will I ever buy a box at these current prices? Absolutely not.

Exactly.  
 

The Medio Siglo and Robusto smoke full body and very rich to my palate.
