Do the Grande Robustos have a square shape to them? Or are they perfectly round? What about the regular robustos? I prefer a round cigar, and the pictures make it difficult to tell the shape.

AHHHH!!!!

This would have to happen when I don't have any money to buy them. I have only had one and they have been sold out since then.
I hope they stay in stock till I get paid next.

Thanks for the heads up, I hardly ever check that site out when I don't have money.

Can anyone comment on the shape of the two robusto offerings? Round or squarish?

Don't know about this batch, the last two have been box pressed-ish. Meaning it's kind of rounded, but looks like it was squished.

I would look into getting a bundle if they had smaller sizes... Sucks that the smallest ring gauge they have is 52.

Haven't had these recently but were a great smoke about a year and a half ago. And they age nicely

I almost feel like buying the Grande Robusto.

I don't know why, but these with 6 months rest on them seem to be in my top 5 cigars.

It would be nice to see these in a Lancero size.

Those that inquired about the shape, here's what the Grande Robusto's look like. They're mostly sqaure-ish.

FWIW, there are only a few dozen bundles left of the Grande Robusto size featured above. Snooze and lose.

This has been a public service announcement.
