Robusto
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.
A Dominican puro-binder-and-filler robusto derived from the Villiger TAA 2021 blend, showing woody and floral notes with almond, roasted coffee and a dried-fig sweetness on the finish. · Released 2025
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.
