Obsidian Robusto

About this listing

There's a new sheriff in town.Obsidian's debut did not go unnoticed. The dare-to-be-different brand set a new standard among premium handmades and the industry has taken notice. The size listing is stacked - a slew of big-ring vitolas, figurados, and more. The blend is dark, meaty, and enticing, delivering a wealth of dense tobacco flavor in an unconventional format. Packed in chunky, Spanish cedar boxes, Obsidian's most remarkable trait is the price. Premium quality and memorable flavor, all for a fee that's most similar to an ordinary yard 'gar. Literally, they would be a bargain at twice the price. So what's in this meaty porterhouse? Obsidian employs a dark, oily Brazilian Habano ligero wrapper overtop a bold blend of Cuban-seed long-fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican, secured inside a spicy Criollo '98 binder. The result is a densely rich and chewy blend, loaded with complex notes of espresso, pepper, earth, toast, and cream. Full-bodied, but extremely smooth and balanced, Obsidian is thoroughly satisfying.
