Description

The PDR Flores y Rodriguez 10th Anniversary Robusto celebrates a decade of Dominican cigar mastery, handcrafted at Abe Flores’ PDR factory. Measuring precisely 5 inches in length by a balanced 52 ring gauge, this medium-bodied Robusto vitola features a silky Ecuadorian Habano wrapper over a Dominican Olor binder and a refined filler of 7-year-aged Piloto Cubano seco ligero plus Nicaraguan Jalapa viso, housed in elegant boxes of 24. Ignition offers a flawless draw and even burn across its satisfying 45-minute voyage. The first third opens with creamy cedar and baked bread, infused with subtle spice and anise whispers. Midway, roasted nuts, mild cocoa, sugarcane sweetness, and gentle black pepper unfold, yielding thick, velvety smoke with clean retrohale. The finale deepens with polished tobacco nectar, lingering earthiness, and hints of vanilla cream through a resilient, silvery ash cone. This limited Reserva Limitada edition demands humidor storage at 65–70% humidity. Suited for morning rituals or mid-afternoon reflection with cappuccino, tawny port, or herbal infusions, it harmonises smoothness and depth for refined palates. A connoisseur’s nod to tradition, the Robusto delivers nuanced elegance in every draw.
