Karatoba

The Karatoba Robusto 5 x 52 is what Tim Ozgener calls one of his boldest and most complex cigars to date. It’s the fourth OZ Family release, and the first one made at the NACSA. The dense flavor, sharp transitions, and profile grabs your attention early and keeps it. You get an Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed wrapper, a Nicaraguan binder, and long filler from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. It’s all packed into a 5x52 format that delivers a memorable ride. It opens savory and rich, think seasoned meat and charred spice, then slides into a subtle sweetness with just enough maple syrup to soften the edges. Medium to full in body, this cigar masterfully shifts, deepens, and keeps pulling you in. If you’re looking to taste a new cigar from the OZ Family, this Robusto is a good starting point.
