smokes the Robusto size one the other day,here's my thoughts:

Appearance: very nicely constructed,firm no soft spots with an nice tawny brown color.

Clip/Draw: clean(used a SAK) with good full draw,tastes of leather/coffee b4 the light.

Light up: Quick,easy and a top off fireball

Ash: Solid,drak grey and dropped after about 1".

Initial tastes: Again as stated be fore coffee/leather, then the bottem fell out.

Mid point to Finish: Blah,Blah,Blah........no tastes,no WOW,nothing. Sorry to say but I prefer the 1916 over this "much hyped" smoke. The tastes left before the Midpoint and nothing appeared after that. Sorry Frankie but I wasn't in awe in this smoke,and the worst part was that I was hoping for it to be a knockout. IMO if given the choice,I'll pass on the Tribute and take the 1916.
