Robusto Extra
Robusto · 45–60 min smoke · Short and thick — the modern default. Plenty of filler for body in a contained, hour-or-less smoke.
At the counter · Forgiving — clean guillotine cut; toast the wide fully before the first draw to avoid a hot start.
Tasting
A 5 7/8 x 50 robusto extra marking a decade of La Colmena, an Aganorsa Nicaraguan puro layering cedar, sweet cream, nuts and refined pepper spice. · Released 2024
Specification
Pairs with
Rye's own pepper meets the smoke's spice head-on — a deliberate, warming match.
Bright agave pepper lifts the baking-spice edge rather than smothering it.

“Like many others, I'm a fan of the original Amado No. 44, but the No. 50 edges it out.”Read on Triple Cap
“Had three of this prior and they all plugged and wrapper refused to burn. I thought it might be high humidity content that caused the burn issue so I dryboxed the hell out of it.”Read on Reddit r/cigars
“I've now had three in a row that are completely the opposite. The Sarto, 10th anniversary La colmena and now the new day. The new day had a citrus sweetness present throughout while still being balanced.”Read on Reddit r/cigars
“I was very impressed by the La Colmena 10th Anniversary. Like many others, I'm a fan of the original Amado No. 44, but the No. 50 edges it out. It's both sweeter and richer than the original. If you're into creamy, sweet cigars or love Connecticuts I would dive right in.”Read on Reddit r/cigars
