robusto

Short fat cigar

Robusto is a cigar size—short and thick, typically about five inches long with a large ring gauge.

The format became popular in the late twentieth century as smokers sought fuller flavor in less time than traditional longer cigars require.

The name comes from Spanish for robust or strong: I'll have a robusto with my whiskey.
