Popular Post Fakhm Posted November 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2018 Hello all, new to these forums. Introduced myself in another thread, 15 years smoking. I went through my humidors today, spent a a good hour checking all the boxes and reading my note, I have this habit of writing down my thoughts after smoking a cigar from any given box as I age my cigars for extended periods. I found a box of Cohiba Robusto Supremos from 2014, I had only smoked one upon release and the note on the box read “smoking well, significant potential, try in 2018” Well its 2018, so I pulled a double shot of espresso and got myself some kenafa to enjoy while I smoked. The cigar absolutely blew me away, tons of classic Cohiba flavors, with overwhelming vanilla, cocoa bean, and dark espresso flavors layered over a robust Cuban tobacco core. The flavors themselves where very enjoyable, but it was the clarity in which they where expressed and the perfect harmony that really got me thinking; how lucky we are to have these experiences! Anyone who does not appreciate a fine cigar does not know what living truley is! I still think the Edicion Limitada program is a blow to dedicated cigar smokers, we would be better off if Habanos SA put that fine tobacco and effort into regular production vitolas. It would be wonderfull if we had a steady, elevated, selection to build personal inventories. That said, the Robustos Supremos are great cigars, and I do wish I had stocked another box at least. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rguinn Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Great first post and welcome to the forum, Fakhm! I have a couple of Robusto Supremos in my humidor that I’m saving for a special occasion. I’ll have to put them at the top of the pile for when the day comes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hey76 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Nice read. I have a half box of these left. Not a fan of the ring gauge but it is a very flavorful stick that is aging well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElJavi76 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I have about half a box for 2013 Behike 52s. The two I've smoked this year remind me of your thoughts above @Fakhm. Just blown away by great Cohiba flavors and they all dance with such synergy. Nothing is out of place and it's everything that a CC is supposed to be. I can def relate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
