Cornelius and Anthony Aerial Robusto

This cigar has a beautifully smooth Connecticut wrapper. The wrapper and foot have the aroma of freshly baked bread. The cold draw is perfect. Today’s beverage is a cold Topo Chico.

The initial notes are medium toasted tobacco with light pepper notes in the retrohale. The flavors of the filler are fuller than one might expect from a cigar with a light wrapper. The construction is also excellent with a very even burn and a solid light grey ash.



The first third continues to be excellent with some light sweetness developing in the blend. The burn continues to be perfect. This cigar is an absolute pleasure to smoke.



During the second third the sweet notes develop into more of a light molasses to complement the excellent tobacco flavors. The ash has hit a stem and split a bit. The burn is still holding very even.



Approaching the final inch the flavors remain complex and pleasant. There is no bitterness that often comes with a light wrapper. Overall an excellent smoking experience with plentiful smoke and ample body. 9.25/10, Joe Bob says check it out.

We agree on that one. very much MEDIUM, but tasted quite nice. a good balanced blend. Takes some skill to get that much flavor into a cigar without juicing up the nicotine.

J,

What is the price point for these. Do you know the other sizes there are in the range? Thanks.


Cheers!

Nice review! I still have one of these to review from the IPCPR cigars sent. Now I am definitely looking forward to smoking and reviewing that cigar.

I’m hoping that winter is about finally over so I can get to these and get them all reviewed!
