Silencio Red Dot Robusto: the cold draw reveals scents of earth and nuts. The first few puffs are rich and deliver notes of earth and espresso.
The first third is a spice bomb, with a rich black pepper note and piquant aroma in the aftertaste. Roasted notes of espresso and earth are perceivable as well. The strength is medium to full (4.5/5).
The second third continues with rich, spicy notes that are still the protagonist, but they appear to be less overwhelming now. The flavor profile is also made of seasoned wood, espresso, and a touch of leather, with some vegetal nuances. The strength doesn’t change (4.5/5).
In the final section, the vegetal components become more intense and culminate with balsamic herbs, which become more pronounced getting closer to the finale. Spices and roasted notes are still present but in the background. In the finale, there is a mix of anise and incense. The strength stays unchanged (4.5/5), making for a satisfying finish.
Overall, the Silencio Red Dot Robusto is a bold smoke from the beginning to the end. The cigar is a flavor bomb, and the first third is as spicy as possible, while the second part of the smoke is more refreshing due to the vegetal and balsamic aromas.
