Richard's Past experience:

This reliable, impressively rolled cigar is THE Corona Gorda. The cigar is soft between your fingers and at the lighting earthy flavors will openly mix with leather and musk aromas. A real “etalon” with a frivolous character, the Punch-Punch has an enchanting sweet note that rings true to the palate. An old friend !

"No flowery adjectives needed to describe this cigar. Simply, a solid smoke."

"This was a welcome gift from Richard that accompanied another order. Thanks Richard! The aroma wafting through my home office would garner a rating of 5.0 - a real heady warmth that reminds me of peat and oak - total Cuban aroma. The smoke itself starts off a bit dry, but soon mellows. Construction and draw were flawless with lots of rich smoke. Very good smoke."

"Full flavored with an earthy taste, but not harsh. An excellent quality smoke that will give you an hour of enjoyment. I've had a lot of pleasure throughout the box of these well-rolled sticks."

"Although I did not love this cigar, it is only due to personal taste. Strong, enjoyable smoke. Just something about it didn't do it for me."

"After smoking three or four boxes of these superb cigars, I bought a cabinet of 50 on the advice of Rick. Even though they were pretty "fresh", (SOL-MAY.05) they were all I expect from the Punch Punch, plus the added consistency of the cabinet. As I write this, on 1115/05, most would say they still need quite a bit of aging, but I have to admit, they are wonderful right now. Though a med-bodied smoke, they are still a total spice bomb, with a perfect draw and great burn, along with one of my favorite finishes. My humidor hasn't been without the Punch Punch for several years, and I will continue to keep it "in stock". DO yourself a favor, and try them en cabinet...you won't be sorry!"

"Richard, Thank you for a flawless box...very nice bloom. For those of you who are thinking of trying this cigar, buy them by the box-you won't regret it. I could go on and on praising this cigar...but who'd read such a long review? The punch-punch is a classic because it is what it is; one hell of a fine cigar, year after year."

"5 weeks in humidor and decided to try one tonight on Father’s Day. It started of with a mild spice with a touch of harshness. Might be the Cajun stew I had for diner. Harshness dissipated after a few minutes. A hint of honey and cream with an overtone of tangy pepper though out most of this cigar. Aftertaste was quiet pleasant with a touch of dryness to the mouth. Overall... can’t wait till this batch gets some aging."

"A classic.
Nicely rolled with a great burn, and great draw.
Elements of honey and cedar with a hazelnut undertone."

"Another box another great smoke. Do not even think about this just buy a box."

"Just got a box and lit one up right away. Rated 91 in this month Cigar Aficionado, might be under rated. This cigar kicked A**. Buy a box now you wont regret it. I usually smoke Bolivar so I like a strong cigar. Don't believe what others have said. While not a Bolivar it is anything but mild."

"I left a very favorable rating a couple of months ago, but it has since been deleted, I hope by accident. Great smoke after resting a while in the humidor. One of my favorites."

"My first Cuban cigar. Normally not a cigar smoker, but enjoyed this one very much. Very mild, which I enjoyed. Will try again.."

On 2002-01-26, Freezoner give the note of 3.5
"A nice looking cigar that burned well with an easy draw. It was kind of mild--I like a kick in my Cubans--and it tasted a bit bland. I was looking for that Cuban coffee/leather/spice taste, but it just never happened. I have four more, so maybe it was just that one."

"A nice firm box role. Sets in the fingers comfortably. Had a nice smooth draw for as tight as it was rolled with a even burn. A full body flavor with a slight pleasent bite."

Life is an experience, a cigar is there to punctuate that experience.
