Alec Bradley Magic Toast Robusto

92 points, Cigar Coop

Alec Bradley Magic Toast series takes its name from a wonderous night of exploring a new tobacco field with flashlights to see the tobacco, where Alan Rubin describes this as an “awe-inspiring experience… almost magical”. This was when the group pulled a bottle of whisky and proposed a toast to the future use of the tobacco, and then Magic Toast was born.

The Magic Toast Robusto features a dark and oily Honduran wrapper that has been aged for four years. The binder is a double binder of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobacco, while the filler is a blend of Nicaraguan and Honduran tobacco. The result is a medium to full-bodied smoke with a complex and balanced flavour profile.

The construction of the Magic Toast Robusto is impeccable, with a firm pack and a smooth draw that allows you to savour the flavours slowly. Brimming with aromas of black pepper, espresso and leather. As you smoke, the flavours evolve into wisps of dark chocolate and a slight nutty sweetness. A smooth and satisfying smoke.
