Vegas Robaina
Famosos Single Cigar
VEGAS ROBAINA
Since 1845 the Robaina family has farmed tobacco continuously on its precious vegas (fields) at Cuchillas de Barbacoa situated in the San Luis district of the Vuelta Abajo tobacco zone.
Vegas Robaina cigars were introduced in 1997 as a tribute to Cuban tobacco farmers through the figurehead of Don Alejandro Robaina whose reputation in his day for producing the finest wrapper leaves was legendary. In effect the brand honours all the anonymous tobacco growers whose knowledge and skill make Havanas what they are today.
All of the medium to full flavoured Vegas Robaina vitolas are ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade.
FAMOSOS
A sturdy shape, a shade longer yet slightly thinner than a robusto, that draws well. It is considered by many to be the brand's outstanding vitola.

Complex sweet and woody flavours. Very spicy in the final third make for a great tasting cigar. Both draw and construction are excellent. The Famosos are an elegant and manly cigar.

"A tightly packed head results in a firm draw, but the cigar burns slow and cool, showing a solid backbone of coffee, salt and spice. A big note graham cracker emerges and lingers on the finish..."
