Upmann Royal Robusto vs 2012 Upmann Robusto LE

[Hafner32]

I am looking for some info/insight/reviews on these 2 cigars.  I have some Upmann Royal Robustos and I have had one which I thought was extremely good and I have layed the rest down for a little time although I think these are smoking very well right now.

I have read some very good reviews and some lukewarm reviews on the 2012 Upmann Robusto LE and I am looking for some opinions from some individuals who have had both and would be willing to share their comparisons/differences/ preferences between the 2.

I am contemplating taking the plunge and picking up a box but not sure whether it is worth the investment or if I should look elsewhere.

Thanks,
Trevor

If you like the generic LE Chocolate/Coco taste, by all means, pick up the Robusto EL.

I personally thought they were a huge let-down compared to the Upman Robusto from the Travel Humi OR the Royal Robusto.

I was wondering if that is what the 2012 LE profile was like.  I have a box of the 2009 Mag 48s which have the LE chocolate profile so if they are similar then there wouldn't be a need for me to pick up any of the 2012s

I've been wondering the same thing
I was very impressed with the Robustos from the travel humidor amd would very much like to get my hands on more or at the very least, something with a similar profile

So the consensus is that the Royal Robustos are closer to the Travel Humidor robustos than the 2012 LE is?
