" Tight draw that eases further in, woody and peppery, occasional uneven burn, dark grey ash. My favorite size in any cigar. "

" I just don't get why this cigar was voted 2008's Best Corona. I struggled with it. The draw was tight and very difficult. It burned unevenly. It was a pleasing enough smoke -- not overly complex or subtle -- but El Rey Choix Supreme's are far, far better if that's what you're looking for. "

" OK, tried again! This one had a strange sweet, almost flowery tinge to it during the first third. Not unpleasant. As the stogie went on it got steadilly stronger. Much better! "

" This was ok, but only ok! I found it a bit dry and inconsistent with the burn, but having read the other experiences, maybe I just got a bad 'un! To be smoked again. "

" My favorite 15-20 minute smoke, also a great multiple all-day smoke. Dependable end to end, cigar after cigar. "

" Others write of allowing theirs to burn to the fingertip; yours are worth burning to the lip. My first order was the best I've had since I moved home from London. Thank you Richard. "

" I really like this cigar. Good construction and burns well. Flavor keeps on coming and hints of its bigger brothers talents are throughout. Great everyday smoke. "

" This was my first purchase from this site. The first few cigars I smoked were a bit harsh. After they aged a few weeks in my humidor the smoke was smooth and almost buttery in its consistency. The first half was smooth and the second half was more spicy and flavorful. Overall a great cigar. "

" I enjoy this cigar when ever I smoke. It offers you two flavors in one cigar. Earthy and a hint of wood along witha good finish with peppery flavour. "

" My favorite. Extremely smooth for a Cuban. Incredible smoke with earthy and woody overtones in the first half. Second half becomes peppery with a strong finish. "
