I only do reviews while im smoking one, but I can give you the 411.

My experience is with the Vega Fina Robusto (scores 88-91, depending on the reviewer)

Wrapper is Ecuadorian Connecticut

Filler is Columbian, Dominican, and Honduran

Binder is Indonesian TBN

Size is 5×50, Robusto

Price is Box of 25, $70-80

Construction is typically a non-issue, burn line is usually tight and i've never had to do a touch-up or re-light, smoke is plentiful and draw is usually a little loose.

Flavor is mild (one of the few mild stix I like)

Here is a review of the flavor I found on-line....Seems accurate to my memory...

The first puff on the robusto from VegaFina is of mild tobacco, but I pick up a note of caramel in the aroma of the smoke. The first third continues with the mild tobacco but is also creamy on the palate. There is a nuttiness in the mix, along with a note that I cannot identify on the finish. The cigar really opens up in the second third, draw wise and flavor wise. The profile does not move much, but the creamy and nutty tobacco is nice on the palate. The last portion of the smoke stays the course but I do pick up just a hint of spice toward the very end.
