Vegas Robaina

[psc109]

Smoked a Famoso last night and decided I need to try more Robaina's. I have narrowed it down to the Clasico or the Familiar. I'm leaning toward the Classico because of the extra inch but was wondering if anybody thinks one is smoking better that the other ROTT.

Thanks!

Go for the Unico

Go for the Unico

Yup! The Familiar is fine and the Clasico excellent, but the Unico is truly wonderful. I have found that VR's in the smaller ring gauges suffer from plugging more than any other line. . .Read that as Familiar and Clasico. I would add that a well aged Clasico that is not plugged can be memorable smoke.

Where in Chestnut Hill are you? I can drop off a few Unicos if you want to try them out.

Unico is the best, IMO.

ok, i'll be that guy

im not real big on the unico, i think its overated .. in general i'm not a big pyramid fan so maybe thats why..

if i had to pick a VR cigar, i'd go with the familiar.. i should pick the famosos, cause i just ordered a box, but the familar has been good to me over the last few years

[kirscovitch]

Well... Since you have my address, go ahead and send me the ones you don't smoke; Seeing as you bought something you don't really like... <G>

Ah .... The art edition ! :thumbsup:

IMO the Familiar has much more flavor than either the Unico or Famoso. It is to VR, what the Corona Extra is to Bolivar.

That's saying a lot, I love me some Boli CE's.
