Absolutely loved this cigar! Paired perfectly with a pour of Diplomatico Rum. I don’t always have a ton of time so this size checked all the boxes for me. I’ll be grabbing more for sure.

Other than being stronger than one might expect from a smaller cigar, this is truly a unique experience – the ash back-bone is ramrod straight, the burn flawless, and the aroma and flavours demand attention in the best way possible. Bit of spice, bit of sweet, bit of cream, a larger proportion of black coffee, and a mild stone-fruit like flavour on the finish. This is a cigar blended by someone who took a lot of care to create an elegant and involving experience, and I’m truly impressed.

I loved the larger toro version (C#1) of this cigar, so I was very interested to see how a shorter format would compare. This petit robusto was bolder on the earth and coffee notes while having a bit less of the sweeter citrus notes that the toro had. Still a very good cigar but the larger C#1 fit my preferences better being a bit more subtle and well rounded

Short and stout with a nice shaggy foot. Draw is impeccable.
I can tell by the first few puff that this will be a rich and savory cigar. Malt, coffee, cream, slight tingle on the tongue. There is minimal pepper to start but the body is medium+. Floral notes kick in as I enter the second third. Burn rate is fast but it’s a short stick and I’m puffing away. The burn like is nearly razor sharp.
Second third brings some spice and body. The floral finish becomes rich and complex. Really enjoyable cigar but not sure if it’s box worthy. I can see myself keeping some singles on hand given the size and decent price point. Definitely a nice fuller body blend from Casdagli.

There are two blends in the line, Basilica C and Basilica A. The Basilica C is said to be the milder cigar while the Basilica A is said to be fuller. I love both. If I want fuller experience I grab the A. Milder = C.
I enjoyed the Basilica C #3 but felt the Basilica A has more to offer in terms of flavor notes.
