Rolling Thunder .50 Cal Habano Robusto Cigar Review – This 5×52 stick features a dark brown softly packed wrapper with an oily satin feel, small veins, tight invisible seams, double cap and a pungent sweet tobacco aroma. First light reveals a loose draw with plentiful rich thick medium-full bodied smoke output showing flavors of a creamy earthy cedar and pepper with a long potent finish. The first third continues the same performance with a razor sharp burn but short ash. Flavors remain the same. The 1/2 way point comes at 25 minutes with a fairly fast burn but excellent burn and still pushing near full bright flavors. There is a mild-medium strength sneaking in, amping everything up a notch. Ending at 45 minutes the last third ramps up the strength even more almost matching the big body.
