The cigar world sits up and takes notice every time Rocky Patel or Drew Estate release a new cigar, yet when they release a shared project the anticipation downright borders crazed delirium! And the always-reliable partnership didn’t disappoint their legions of fans with the latest concoction: The superbly sweet and savory Java Red Robusto.
Crafted by Drew Estate for Rocky Patel, the decadent Java Red Robusto features a delicious core of Nicaraguan tobaccos that are covered by a tantalizingly dark Brazilian Maduro wrapper leaf. The tobaccos have gone through Drew Estate’s secret infusion process which delivers unparalleled delights with every puff of the 5 ½” x 50 cigar.
The 50 minute or so experience is filled with voluptuous coffee, cocoa, earth and spice flavors which meld perfectly with outrageously delectable cherry flavors that will have the taste-buds in a constant state of bliss right from the start of the medium-bodied smoke until the lavishly satisfying finale.
Even if you are ardently opposed to the idea of “infused” cigars, the impeccably assembled box-pressed Java Red Robusto is simply one of the most stunningly gratifying smokes to ever hit the market and just might be the cigar that wins you over. And this tasty treat will serve as a fantastic companion to a Manhattan, Old Fashioned or any number of your favorite cocktails.
