Casa Cuevas Patrimonio Robusto Cigar and a Contest!

Two months ago I posted about the Casa Cuevas Patrimonio shipping to stores, and Gabriel Piñeres,  who does the PR for Cuevas, and has been a great friend for many years, was kind enough to send me a couple of them a few weeks ago. When I posted the news item I threatened to buy some, and I plan to make good on that threat, especially after smoking these (and I’m smoking one as I type). To recap, this was made as an homage to the senior Cuevas, Luis Sr., by his son and grandson, with a Honduran Corojo wrapper, Ecuadorian Habano binder, and filler made up of Peruvian, Nicaraguan, and Dominican tobaccos. This is an interesting blend for a historically Dominican company! I smoked the 5″ x 54 Robusto, when I buy some, I’ll try the Toro (of course). Both samples I smoked worked perfectly, I couldn’t have been happier. There’s a tanginess to the smoke which I suppose would be classified as citrus, over a fairly leathery flavor. It’s a really nice cigar. This would be a no brainer for me to be a new Father’s Day traditional cigar for me, but I was the very fortunate recipient the cigars that I’ve been smoking for the last 20 years (which, of course, are 20+ years old and in beautiful condition, I’m set into my 70s!). This is a brilliant cigar, very well done. 

 

Contest! 

It’s been a while again, and I feel like giving some things away! Once again, this will be a random CigarCraig’s Humidor selection!  I’ve pulled some cigars from the humidor, and I’ll add some more as I rummage through the humidors during the week! There are 13 cigars pictured, along with a very nice dual flame lighter and cutter from Villiger, assorted coasters, stickers and matches as I come across them, and a nice shirt from Habana Premium Cigar Shoppe that I would have happily added t my wardrobe, but 2XL is much too large for me I’m afraid! So as per usual, leave a comment on this post to enter, one post per person please! Must be of legal age to win, of course! I’ll pick a winner next Wednesday, November 3, 2021. 

 

That’s all for today, until the next time,

    Casa Cuevas has been on my radar, but I haven’t seen them locally yet. Sounds like a great blend there.

    Nice group of cigars! I spotted an Ortega and a couple of those gorgeous Cigar Bundles of Miami sticks in there. And yes, a XXL will fit me just fine, thank you very much.

    I’ve always been a big fan of Casa Cuevas!

    Thanks for the contest! I have yet to see Casa Cuevas locally (I blame California taxes) but they have been on the radar for me to try.

    Well, I’m in! My lighter just went kaput and 2XL normally makes a great nightshirt for my Mrs. Who we kidding – it’s all about the random cigars from your humi, buddy! ;-p

    I haven’t stumbled across the Casa Cuevas here yet, but it is in the wheelhouse. I can rock a 2X Ramones kinda vibing cigar shirt. Thanks for the chance Craig.

    The Casa Quevas cigars I have smoked are among the best I have had. I am anxious to try the Patrimonial.

    I don’t believe I’ve had any Casa Cuevas. Haven’t seen any in my area. Solid line up of sticks for your giveaway Craig.
    Thanks for the opportunity. Good luck everyone.
