H. Upmann Royal Robusto LCDH

The H. Upmann Royal Robusto is a substantial cigar, measuring 5 3/8 inches in length and 52 ring gauge, similar to an elongated robusto. This chunky vitola was introduced at the 2011 Habanos Festival in Cuba and subsequently released as a global exclusive for Casas del Habano stores. With around 140 authorized retailers worldwide, this cigar is relatively accessible. The secondary band featuring the Casa del Habano logo is a distinctive marker of its authenticity. Upon smoking, the H. Upmann Royal Robusto reveals a silky smooth draw, unleashing robust flavors of earthy undertones, coffee, and rich minerals, followed by a prolonged, oak-infused finish. Contrary to the common perception that Cuban Upmanns are mild, this cigar packs a punch. The rebirth of the H. Upmann Royal Robusto is tied to the 2011 relocation of the H. Upmann Havana operation to the Romeo y Julieta factory, where the team rolled their initial batches, including this vitola, while their own facility underwent renovation. The flavor profile is complex, with notable hints of leather, coffee, and cedar, complemented by creamy, sweet, and spicy undertones. Additional nuances include shortbread, vanilla, pepper, licorice, nutty, and tobacco notes, as well as subtle hints of cinnamon, bitter chocolate, and a range of other flavors, including sourdough, latte, almond, floral, butter, cocoa, spice, honey, citrus, and tamarind, all combining to create a rich and satisfying smoking experience.
