Last night my wife and I had Cigardawg, Jingles and their significant others over for dinner. While the girls socialized, we sat out back for relaxing smoke.
I lit up an ERDM Gran Corona (RPO LLOO). The construction was wonderful. A firm cigar with a beautiful three flag cap. It had a wonderful golden brown wrapper and was very slightly box pressed.
The draw was easy and the burn was perfect. The initial taste I got was a very mellow cedar. While the cigar never really picked up strength, the flavors changed and progressed throughout.
Around the middle third, the cedar gave way to a heartier, bread/wheat taste that left my palate a bit dry. This then ultimately gave way to an earthy flavor with very subtle spice underneath.
Overall, the cigar performed tremendously well, it was just a little too mild for me. I think it would be a great morning cigar!
I look forward to seeing what others have to say!
