"Not Rich Enough"
I enjoy this cigar. I just wish it had a little more of the tastes I associate with a maduro.
Not enough coffee, chocolate, carmel, etc. Still a lot of cigar for the money.

"a good maduro"
I used to smoke the Trilogy tri-side robusto maduros but then my local cigar shop stopped carrying them. Thankfully they are back after about a six month absence. For good, flavorful smoke. Good even draw and consistent burn with an ash that held on until the last two inches.

"Mesquite-Smoked Tenderloin"
Had this one in the humidor for almost a year. Worked from home and lit her up after lunch. Nice clouds of white smoke and flavor that was, yes, meaty. That’s a very good description of this guy. I would add a little spicy mesquite to the mix. This flavor kept me interested enough to deal with a horrible burn halfway in and on down to a stubbed-toe nub. That last relight was dangerously close to the nose.

"meat and oats"
mildly shiny and oily wrapper. my burn was even with a very nice draw! thick white smoke comes out of this beaut. tastes meaty, burnt oats, mild chocolate at first. a bit harsh at first, but gets interestingly milder after the first 1/3 for me. i got some light sweetness like vanilla and more chocolate as i get downed and less burnt flavors. meat maintained. mad meaty.

"and for the triangular..."
once I found some triangle-pressed robustos, I had to try them. This is basically my daily go-to cigar. Where they really shine is consistency. I hate when you never know what one will taste like after the others... and these always pull through with consistent draw, excellent burn characteristics, and a great complex maduro taste. I liike cocoa, but these make a nice robust meaty smoke w/ notes of wood and leather, little cocoa, but nice nonetheless. oh, and I did buy a box -no regrets!

"my favorite maduro"
These are my selection for a treat. I get the round ones. It's an even burn, consistent taste, even good after relighting. Tastes complex w/ spice, leather, cocoa, an easy finish, and nice remnant.

"GREAT BARGAIN"
This cigar is a great bargain for the money and would put it up there close with the best... love the brazilian wrapper. Similar taste to CAO Brazilias... just make sure to store it a bit below 70% in the humidor for proper burn...

"Maduro Lover's Delight"
Just tried the round version. Pre-light taste is salty/meaty, yum! Perfect draw while burning slow & even with white ash. Gobs of creamy smoke with sweet, salty, spicy taste describes this robusto. Will buy a box.

"nice"
Pretty looking cigar. Burned a little uneven, but other than that no complaints. The triangle press fits perfectly in the fingers. Tons of smoke with this one, earthy tones with hints of spice. GREAT BUY.

"A Love Triangle!"
The aroma and appearance of the dark Brazilian wrapper foretold of good things to come. Nice thick cap took a punch cut very well.
Burned straight and had complex sweet tobacco flavors. The Columbian tobacco really showed through, its sweetness tempered by the spiciness of the Nic. it was paired with.
Even after relighting after a trip into the grocery store, this was still a delicious smoke.
A bargain at about 3 bucks. I'm eager to try the new "round" version.

"Enjoyable and worth the money"
A handsome cigar with good construction. The triangular shape was interesting and did not detract from the “smokeability” of this above average stogie. Construction was excellent with even burn and good draw, not too loose not too tight. Flavor was mostly consistent with a slightly stronger finish than the initial flavor. Smooth and slightly woody with hints of spice made this a very enjoyable smoke in front of a small fire with a nice wheat beer. I recommend this smoke to anyone who likes a Maduro and suggest those who like a mild smoke to give this one a whirl. Definitely worth the price.

"Trilogy Exotic Maduro Robusto"
After about 15 or 16 of the "Robusto" size I have to say thit's a very, very nice cigar, esp. for the price tag. The triangle shape DOES go well in hand and also, with a flat side down, are very comfortable to hold in one's teeth.
All the smoking mechanics have been above-average, there is tons of great taste and gobs of smoke. I think these would have to be rated close to "Full" strength, and maybe "Extra-strength" by aficionados of medium or milder cigars. But none has been harsh or hot or "bitey" at all - just a really, really nice smoke. Very tasty.

"Average at best"
Tried this after having a good experience with the Trilogy Cameroon. Didn't find this one to have any of the nice qualities I found in the Cammy. Bland flavor, inconsistent burn, tight draw. I guess that's what you get for $2.50.

"Good for the budget smoker"
Now, I have had better cigars for this price, but for a cigar brand that is not as popular as a Davidoff or a Fuente, this is a good tasting, great drawl, great burn cigar, for the price tag. It has notes of spice, but very few, and is a medium leght smoke, so perfect for a 30-40 minute drive. Also, a very pleseant aroma. Overall, a cheap good tasting bang for your buck cigar.

"Not that Exotic"
For a short cigar, this one lasted a long time. However not as rich a taste as most maduro's I've tasted. Still, its attractive to the eye and the palate.

"Package Deal"
I tried this stick in a sampler package and was pleasantly surprised. Even burn, full flavor, nice finish. Recommend for the money.
