Flavor characteristics

The top notes gently open with cedar, creamy toffee, and slightly sweet citrus, while the floral notes of the Sumatra wrapper and the fresh cedar are like the first light of dawn. In the middle notes, roasted almonds, light leather, and cocoa powder gradually unfold, with caramel and vanilla intertwining to create a warm and approachable gradation. The base notes gently conclude with dark chocolate, vanilla bean, and delicate minerals, leaving a rounded and long finish, like the tranquil afterglow of the sunset.

Origin and wrapper information

Crafted at the Tabacalera Alianza factory and personally blended by Tim Ozgener, son of Cano Ozgener, this Robusto features a premium Ecuador Sumatra wrapper with a rich, lustrous amber color, double-fermented to lock in its mellow flavor. The filler blends ten-year-aged leaves from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. This Robusto is perfectly balanced in size, its flavors unfolding precisely like a gentle string melody, revealing layers of the family's enduring harmony.

Reasons for recommendation

Cigar Aficionado awarded it 93 points in 2023, ranking it 12th in the Top 25 that year, praising it as "a textbook example of the balance between the creamy floral notes of the Sumatra wrapper and the deep flavor of the ten-year-old leaves." A Halfwheel reviewer stated, "Perfect burn, snow-white ash, flavor like an elegant declaration of the Ozgener family's return to its peak." Like a low-pitched string melody Tim Ozgener dedicated to his father on the volcanic black soil, this cigar opens with a morning prelude of cedar butter, gradually building in the art of caramel cocoa, and finally gently closing with the deep, dark notes of vanilla and minerals. Its overall character is light yet imbued with profound family wisdom. It is not only the "crown jewel" of the Firsat series, but also the most moving opening chapter of the Ozgener family's return to the cigar world—holding one is embracing the purest aftertaste of the CAO golden age.
