My Father Le Bijou 1922 Grand Robusto

That dark chocolate and raisin note comes through beautifully from the first draw, balanced by a subtle saltiness that keeps it interesting. The box-press shape feels solid in hand and the burn has been razor-sharp the whole way through.

The 5 5/8 x 55 size feels perfect in the hand, and that leather note really comes through on the retrohale. I lit one up after dinner and the dark chocolate raisin sweetness kept me company for a solid hour—medium-full strength that never got harsh. Already ordered another box.

That sweet-salty balance is exactly what I look for in a cigar, and the 5 5/8 x 55 size feels perfect in the hand. The wood and leather notes come through beautifully, making it a solid choice for a relaxing evening smoke.
