Davidoff Escurio Petit Robusto

I am always impressed by how long the cigar smokes, despite the small format. It gives a time like many larger cigars.

Construction

I don’t know if it’s just the band or that Davidoff has always been a stamp for premium cigars but the feeling I get when I look at the band and the cigar is gentleman/woman. A cigar I envision myself taking out of my pocket when wearing a suit after a business meeting or at a party. The small size of the cigar as it rolled around in my hand gave a cozy feeling. The construction of the cigar was perfect. The tobacco was evenly distributed and tightly packed. There was a slight oiliness that embraced the cigar.

Wrapper: Ecuador – Binder: Brazil – Filler Brazil and Dominican

Taste

Smell and cold draw

I brought the cigar to my nose and felt a hay-like aroma and prominent sweetness on the wrapper. The filler smelled fruitiness and with a light hay undertone. All the smells made me more eager to light the cigar to see what it had to offer.

Taste Davidoff Escurio Petit Robusto lit

The cigar had the same flavors almost all the way from start to finish. The flavors Davidoff Escurio Petit Robusto provided were espresso, light caramel syrup, a salty nuttiness and sweet licorice. I was a little pleasantly shocked when the shades changed a bit towards the end, the flavors that came to the party were leather that reminded me of the same scent as new leather shoes have, that is, sweet and smooth. There were also shades that reminded me of dark cherries. The retrohalation was a bit spicy and gave shades of cedar wood.

After taste

The aftertaste was smooth and not harsh as with many other cigars. It gave shades reminiscent of a mixture of cedar and general nuttiness.

Body

upper part of Medium

Smoke time

I was shocked by the smoking time. I thought it would take 25 – 30 minutes considering the small format, I sat for 40 minutes.

Conclusion

Incredibly good balance between the flavors. The glow of the cigar was impressive, you could wait longer than usual between puffs and smoke it incredibly slowly. The body is on the upper part of medium and can fit most aficionados who have smoked for a while. Price, vs quality, vs taste put where it should be even if it costs a little more than many others of the same size.
