Review Notes: Wow, look at the range in the ratings of this Cusano 18 Robusto! All our avid smokers rate it anywhere from the "Holy Grail of Cigars" to "bear scat". I guess I hit somewhere north of average. This is a well built and attractive cigar. The burn and draw were near perfect. It had a mild salty-creamy taste with hints of vanilla, much better than the maduro. I found nothing here to bash excessively and nothing to over embellish with praise either. Just a plain good cigar that's tasty, but best remember for it's construction.
