In this trim, athletic video cigar review, I take a look at Dunhill’s first foray into the full-bodied cigar since they stopped making cigars in Cuba. I haven’t smoked a lot of Dunhills, but have had enough to know that this cigar is a significant departure for them. For the complete story, click the play button below.

- Through the magic of editing, the video is a mere 4 minutes and 19 seconds. If you had clicked the play button before reading this, it would already be half over.
- In short, the cigar is about pepper and potency, but there is a little more to it than that.
- The Heritage by Dunhill Robusto is box pressed, and the wrapper is toothy and looks really nice.
- Brian calls Honduras “The Honduras” for some reason.
- Good construction, but some unevenness at the end.
- Brian predicts people who rate cigars will rate it 87, which will be proven correct eventually, given the number of people out there rating cigars.
- It’s a good option for people who enjoy peppery, potent smokes.
