Construction
The feeling I got from the band wrapping around the cigar was an adventurous journey, exploring new islands.
The cigar was firmly and evenly rolled and had a slightly rouge oily feeling to it.
Wrapper: Panama – Binder: Panama – Filler: Panama
Smell and cold draw
The wrapper of Marca Fina panama had a scent of chocolate and florality while the filler had a scent of hay and grass. The cold draw gave me flavors of oatmeal and floral flavors.
Lets light up the Marca Fina Panama Robusto
The texture was slightly creamy and the dominant flavors i felt were spiciness, hay, chocolate, cacao, woodiness, general floral flavors and nuttiness. In the background there were flavors of fruitiness and a vanilla sugar like sweetness. The retrohalation tickled my nose a little and gave nuances of black pepper and hay.
After taste
Chocolate and walnuts.
Body
Medium bordering on mild
Smoke time
40 minutes
Conclusion
Marca Fina Panama Robusto is a lightly smoked cigar without much complexity. There are not many flavors but they are well balanced and stand out more instead. If I compare price vs taste vs quality, I think the cigar, considering the low price, gives more than what you pay for.
