Villa Casdagli Robusto
Step into refined luxury with the Villa Casdagli Robusto, a cigar that artfully bridges traditional heritage and modern blending innovation. Inspired by Cairo’s legendary Villa Casdagli estate, this robusto is expertly crafted at Tabacos de Costa Rica, using a global assortment of premium tobaccos and a special “mejorado” fermentation process for elevated depth and sweetness.
- Mejorado Tobacco Process: Select tobaccos undergo a secondary fermentation for richer, deeper flavor
- Global Blend: Features two distinct Peruvian fillers, along with tobaccos from Ecuador and the Dominican Republic
- Balanced Medium-Full Profile: Sweetness, complexity, and structure unite for a memorable session
- Evolving Flavor Journey: Notes of pepper, vanilla, chocolate, maple syrup, brown sugar, honey, cashew, and molasses

- Collector’s Presentation: Sold in elegant boxes of 12—ideal for gifting or special occasions
The Villa Casdagli Robusto exemplifies the best of classic and contemporary cigar artistry. Its heart lies in a blend that employs two Peruvian filler tobaccos, Dominican and Ecuadorian leaves, all wrapped in a lustrous Ecuadorian wrapper. After blending, key tobaccos are “mejorado” (improved) with an extra 2–4 months of secondary fermentation to unlock deep new layers of flavor.
From the first draw, expect a sophisticated progression: gentle pepper lifts into cores of sweet vanilla and rich chocolate, followed by evolving notes of warm maple syrup, brown sugar, honey, and roasted cashew. As you approach the finale, layers of molasses and subtle spice emerge, all within a creamy, medium-full smoke that never overwhelms. Every stick boasts flawless construction—hallmark of its Costa Rican boutique origin—and a long, satisfying finish.

I am a huge fan of Casdagli cigars. I tried the Villa Casdagli Robusto for the first time yesterday and thought it was very good. It’s not as complex as some of Casdagli’s more expensive offerings but it is good nonetheless. There is a prominent citrus element, like lemon or even lemongrass. I also tasted notes of graham cracker, nuts and chocolate. It had a good amount black pepper spice. Construction and draw were both excellent. It’s a very good cigar but Casdagli makes better, albeit more expensive, cigars.

Absolutely love this stick. A little white/black pepper but I really got a ton of maple syrup and brown sugar flavors from this one. Right up my alley.

Not as dynamic of a flavor profile compared to the Pigasus vitola. Overall a decent stick, but not something I’d buy again.
