Carlos Torano Reserva
Selecta Robusto
Origin: Honduras
Size: 5.00x 50 
Wrapper: Nicaraguan - Cuban Seed Claro / Conneticut
NOTE: I honestly don't know
where this cigar originates from. Most sites list is as
Honduran while a few list it as Nicaraguan and one even
lists it as Dominican. Judging by this review I don't
think it matters much.

From
Nice Ash Cigars:
Rated 90 by Cigar Insider. All cigars are wrapped in cedar
and encased in crystal tubes to preserve freshness, arranged
in a beautiful wood box. All tobaccos are aged 3 to 5
years. This well made cigar has a perfect draw. Packed
with soft cool smoke, the Reserva Selecta is mild to medium
bodied with notes of sweet cream and cedar, with a long
herbal finish. An extraordinary mild to medium bodied
smoke.

Notes:
Some sellers claim this is a Nicaraguan puro while others
say it's a mixture of Nicaraguan and Honduran leaf.
Well made and presented (in a glass tube) it's mild and
a little boring. While it produced lots of smoke it just
didn't produce a lot of flavour and it wasn't that strong
either. Dull, but not actually bad, it didn't seem like
other Nicaraguan cigars. Waste of money in my opinion.
