I just had my first one of these, but it will definitely not be my last: yet another in my steadily-growing list of great petit coronas. This is a beautiful, silky, coffee-brown cigar, with a sturdy box-pressed look. When I clipped the top, it gave off a great crispy snap. The initial flavor is quite peppery, but not spicy at all. Throughout, the smoke is thick and the flavor is a medium-bodied mix of cream, coffee, chocolate, leather and even some fruit. A really strong, snow-white ash completes the package. Overall, just a really well-balanced, delicious cigar.
5 out of 5 stars.
