When the Sin Compromiso line from Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust launched in 2019, one popular size was notably absent: the Robusto. The size was added this year and the blend has been adjusted to better suit the format. It offers an explosion of flavors. While it does have some strength, the underlying sweetness beautifully balances the flavor profile out.
Upon lighting the cigar, flavors of nuts, cream, and cocoa emerge on the palate, followed by earthiness, charred wood, and cinnamon. A vibrant leather note is introduced later and a subtle sweetness is present as well. The profile becomes richer and spicier as it reaches the end.

HOW ARE THE AWARDS MADE?
Those who scored the highest among the cigars tested during the year in blind tastings and reviews get re-selected. These products are then tested once again in a new blind tasting, which means not knowing what they are during the tasting. The test results are then compared, and the TOP 5 are created.
Since 2015, CigarsLover Magazine has focused on terroirs in order to give the right space to all the producing countries. From 2018, the TOP 5 were paired with the TOP 50, which lists the 50 best cigars without distinction of origin. Together with the Best Brands, the Best, and the best Boutique Brands, this list will be published in CigarsLover Magazine issue #5.
