I was gifted one of these from a BOTL in a recent box split. So first of all, thank you so very much to "you know who you are"!

This was a second cigar for me yesterday, backup to a very poor showing Premium Dominican :(. The wrapper was a bit rough and a little bit bulging up to the ring. Nice prelight aroma and draw with a noticable sweet, almost perfume taste. This was a great burning cigar with lots of smoke and a nice aroma. A bit on the milder side with an almost sweet taste to it. I wasn't sure if I really liked the sweet taste, it's a good thing I have one more of these in the humidor to try. I'm very curious to see if that sweet taste is common in this line.

:cool:
 
Nice review. I do find these to have a mild sweetness too them. The Corona especially exhibits this quality. The Gran Corona which is my favorite in the line is a bit more complex and even milder. Probably the only mild Havanas that I really like.
 
Thanks for the review David :D

Stick with the Gran Coronas ;)

By the way, my burro Hector lost radar contact of the missle.....must be over the grapevine or something :p
 
LOL! Hector is one stuborn mule!

I think my other stick is a Gran Corona, it is bigger than the first one.

:cool:
 
first...these are not that easy to find in cuba(dont know why).

saw some several years ago...had been looking for some since.

well i did find some (last november)and tried a couple of singles.

so mild i decided not to buy.
