Casa Turrent 1901 Gran Robusto is a box pressed Mexican cigar from the Casa Turrent 1901 series, made in a boutique factory in a 5 3/4 x 52 format.
Alberto and Alejandro Turrent, owners of Nueva Matacapan de Tabacos, are the first family of Mexico’s cigar industry, and they are also the largest grower of cigar tobacco in the country. The San Andrés maduro leaf they grow outside of Veracruz is world renowned for its quality, and many of America’s most popular premium cigar brands use their tobaccos.
To keep the consistency of their flagship Casa Turrent line, Alejandro decided a large factory was not the best place to make the more complex Casa series, so the cigars are made in a boutique factory with 15 people. The blend uses a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over Nicaraguan and Mexican binder and filler tobaccos. Cigar Aficionado reviewers describe a toasty cigar with sweet hints of maple and raisins that build to a woody finish.
At Medium strength, Casa Turrent 1901 Gran Robusto suits smokers who enjoy the dark character of Mexican San Andrés leaf. The 52 ring gauge and 5 3/4 x 52 length make it a good fit for a focused session.
