Grab some chopsticks and pour yourself some soy sauce, because Espinosa is here with a nuclear bomb of a far east themed blend that is sure to kamikaze your tastebuds! Originally released in 2016 exclusively to Espinosa-branded lounges, the Wasabi was part of Espinosa’s rare and limited Backroom Series. The buzz around the Wasabi was louder than an air raid siren, so it quickly became a sought after collectors item. Now, for the first time ever the Wasabi is available as a regular production blend! A rich green candela wrapper covers up binder and filler composed of secret undisclosed leaf. As the name implies, the Wasabi is full of spice, and features a flavor explosion of lemongrass, bell pepper, white pepper, jalapeno, barnyard hay, and sweetness. Grab yourself a spicebomb with Espinosa’s Wasabi. You’ll be happier than fat man at an all you can eat sushi buffet!

Cigar Name: Espinosa Wasabi Robusto
Size: 5×52
Smoke Time: 1hr 45
Presentation
Wrapper- 5/5 – Very even wrap smooth and matte Candella
Band -3/4 – Nice but very plain
Firmness -3/3 – even throughout no hard spots
Oils -2/3 – no oil in appearance dry looking, per typical Cancellas
Smoking Character
Light -5/5 – perfect and even light from Toasting foot to initial draw
Burn -8/10 – 1st third had a bit of canoeing, but corrected itself (this was probably due to smoking a bit fast)
Draw -7/8 – a but tight at beginning but opened up nicely in 2nd third
Flavor
Consistency -9/9 – Lemon grass hay and a woody note with some intersting spice of actual wasabi on the tongue and palate with a sweet/salt undertone and spices ramped up, as did the soy in 2nd and 3rd /3rd
Flavor Quality -9/9 – Fantastic and bold with a real spice on retrohale
Smoothness -8/8 – great thick smoke, rolling around in the mouth brings some earthiness and more lemongrass and hay
Overall Impression
Quality of Blend -10/12 Not knowing other than a candella wrap with a “secret” Nicaraguan Filler and Cap Hard to rate
Flavor Progression -7/8 – spicy not your normal candella in any way, but delicous
Finish -6/6 – all the way to the nub was flavorful. No harsh notes in anyway, nor overheat or char flavor. Wonderful
Speed of Burn -5/5 – perfect
Price: $9.21 Good price for the stick
MY RATING: 91/100

This is my 5th Wasabi and each time a new flavor experience opens up. I find that I retrohale with this cigar more than any other. If you like Sushi, and when mixing your Soy and Wasabi, and you like that to be almost a thick consistency, and almost a greenish brown, and you even put more wasabi on your sushi, then THIS is the cigar for you. As mention in a previous review, on light up with retrohale, IMHO you get a true Wasabi hit in the nostrils with a hint of soy… Love this Cigar, and I need to amend my initial rating to at least a 95-96. Again if you are a Sushi freak, and are just short of Snorting the actual Wasabi, then you need these in your collection. Also as they age they get even Better and Spicier. Tremendous!
