A Few words from Don Alejandro Robaina
I received a newsletter from one of my sources. The owner wrote about his trip to Cuba. This is one paragraph from the newsletter that I though was interesting... how Mr. Robaina prefers to use a punch cutter
His favorite Vegas Robaina cigars are the Famosos (Robusto) and the Unicos (torpedo). He took great pleasure in showing me how he uses a cigar punch on all his cigars ( the cap is the pinnacle of a cigar rollers art…it is disrespectful to cut it off). He showed me how he dips the end of the cigar into his coffee (always short black and sweet)…try it and you will always do it…delicious! He frowned at the thought of dipping the cigar in brandy, cognac or rum… "coffee is a natural product of the soil, like tobacco. Liquor is distilled, adulterated and hence the two should never meet."
