Stallone cigars Castano robusto cigar review

If you like more earthy flavors, this might be a cigar for you. I was impressed by how slowly you could smoke the cigar and how softly the flavors changed during the smoking process.

Construction

The cigar was solid with no veins or irregularities that could interfere. The wrapper had a matte feel to it.

Wrapper: San Andreas Mexico – Binder: Nicaragua – Filler: Nicaragua

Scent and cold draw

Both the wrapper and filler had a farmyard scent while the cold draft gave me flavors of maltiness and hay.

1/3 Lets light up the Stallone castano robusto

After I toasted the cigar I was greeted with a creamy texture and flavors of general nuttiness, florality, hay, ground dark roasted coffee beans and nutmeg. The earthy flavors were balanced out quite well with nuances in the background of citrus peel and syrupy sweetness. The retrohalation tickled my nose a little and the nuances I felt were white pepper and hay.

2/3 A smooth complexity emerged

As I entered the second third of the Stallone Castano robusto, the texture was creamy in the same way as before. A complexity emerged and the flavors I felt were anise, hay, general nuttiness, chocolate, grass and leather. In the background, nuances of white pepper, general pepperiness and syrup-like sweetness had emerged. What was lovely was that the re-exhalation became a little smoother and still gave nuances of white pepper and hay.

3/3 Lets see how the cigar ends

The texture remained almost the same as before, it became a little creamier. In the last part of the cigar it felt like it gave all it has. The flavors I felt were hay which was the most dominant flavor followed by espresso in combination with cacao, grass and general woodiness. In the background I could feel nuances of nuttiness, anise, white pepper, classic tobacco and a combination of raisins and syrup-like sweetness. Retrohalation was now completely smooth and gave a shade of hay.

Castano robusto smoked surprisingly slowly, a full 80 minutes.

Conclusion

Stallone Castano robusto is a cigar with a bit more robust flavors. It can be smoked surprisingly slowly. The body, which is on the medium side, makes it suitable for most aficionados. If I compare price vs taste vs quality, I think you get more than what you pay for. I think it is a bit low in price.
