Rojas Cigars built its Street Tacos line around a simple idea: name each blend after a taco filling and give each one its own personality. The Rojas Street Tacos Carnitas Robusto cigar was the second blend in the series, following the Sumatra-wrapped Rojas Street Tacos Barbacoa cigar and later joined by the Rojas Street Tacos Al Pastor cigar.
The Rojas Street Tacos Carnitas Robusto cigar begins with Nicaraguan filler, is bound in a Nicaraguan leaf, and is finished with a smooth Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper. It's rolled at the Rojas Cigar Factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, and sized at a classic 5" x 50 robusto, offering easy-going smoking sessions of around 60 minutes.
What does the Rojas Street Tacos Carnitas Robusto cigar taste like?
The Rojas Street Tacos Carnitas Robusto cigar opens on the mild end of the spectrum, gradually moving closer to medium throughout the experience. But its primary focus is on the flavor, bringing out creamy hay, barnyard, earth, nuts, and vanilla bean through the finish. It's a great pick for Connecticut fans who want more flavor than the usual mellow shade smoke.
