Aliados Original Blend Robusto cigar

My thought was to review the cigar a little later this summer after smoking two or three, but it shocked me in a way I wasn’t prepared for.

Conctrustion

The construction was perfect in every way. It was firmly and evenly rolled without any soft parts or hard parts that would indicate that it was plugged. The cover was food and the “seams” were as if glued.

Aliados Original Blend Robusto

Taste

1/3 What a suprise Aliados original blend robusto delivered

After lighting the cigar I was surprised at how prominent the flavors were. They had incredible balance but still stood out. It was an almost unique experience.The texture was smooth and creamy without being too little or too much. It was perfect. The flavors I felt were hay, an incredible amount of fruitiness, a light flowery light chocolate taste and a toffee like sweetness. The retrohale was smooth and gave flavors of white pepper.

2/3 The cigar shows a complexity

lavors that came were a mixture of hay and oak, the fruitiness now moved towards shades of dark berries, dark chocolate and some light leather. The retrohalation was smooth and gave flavors of white pepper and cayenne pepper.

3/3 A good finish to the cigar

The texture continued in the same way as before. The flavors the last third offered were hay and oak, the oak flavor became a little darker in shade, the dark berry flavor became more prominent than before, dark chocolate, espresso, brown sugar and a sourness that I can’t describe other than slightly reminiscent of orange. As I got into the end of the cigar, a final bit of complexity came in and flavors of sourdough bread and light vanilla sugar entered the final puffs. The retrohalation tickled the nose a little and reminded me of smoky barbecue seasoning.

After taste

The aftertaste was short and gave lighter nuances of walnuts

Conclusion

An incredibly well balanced between the flavors. Medium body that also suits more inexperienced aficionados. If we compare price vs quality and taste, I would like to say that I got much more than what I paid for. A cigar that was impressive.
