Popular Post JohnS Posted July 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2019 Cohiba Coronas Especiales AUM Jul 2014 The Coronas Especiales has the exact dimensions as the Montecristo Especiales No.2 (38 ring gauge x 152 mm or 6 inches in length) and boy do I love its size. What a shame I don't have it more often! I think a recent 24:24 listing of this cigar prompted me to re-visit it today. At just on 5 years rested I wondered how this was coming along? The first few puffs more than answered my question...quite nicely, thank you! In comparison to the Cohiba Siglo I I had before this cigar, this was more lighter in coffee and hay and much sweeter. Milk coffee, light hay, honey and vanilla notes was evident from the 'get-go' in good volumes of smoke per draw until curiously I hit the middle of the first third and noticed a burn-hole developing. Yes, it was the dreaded mouse-hole burn again (caused by a tunnel in the filling and incorrectly bunched leaves), the second time this has occurred this year, and it resulted in no smoke or flavour for about a quarter inch of the cigar. As I persevered through this there was a related runner-burn that developed but this settled around the end of the first third, the whole mouse-hole and runner burn issue, and related touch-ups on the wrapper lasted about an inch of its length, there were no more construction issues after this, thankfully! Paradoxically, the cigar flavour-wise, apart from that one-quarter of a inch where the mouse-hole burn originated, was outstanding, it could not be faulted. The only improvement I could envisage in the future for the remaining sticks from this box would be more evidence of creaminess, otherwise the middle third and final thirds of this CCE were fantastic! 24 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Chef Posted July 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2019 I'm on a roll. Third straight CC that possessed a good draw. I was really hoping for those quintessential JL2 chocolaty, citrus flavors. It had some, but not robust. Still, a nice smoke. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CampDelta369 Posted July 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2019 Went for an slightly aged PLPC but even my best efforts on Fracking couldn’t yield coherent smoke. Pitched it. The knot under the band was legendary. El Principe to the rescue. Right now, if I had just these in my humi and storage I would be smiling ear to ear. The smallest draw yields absolute deliciousness. Bloody freaking crackers @El Presidente LGR DIC 17 PSP. This is why we are here. Cheers First MC#2 PSP off 24:24. It started off with a profound sweet cream with DNA Cocoa and coffee notes. I always get a bit of white pepper that moves back. Excellent construction and draw. Thanks @El Presidente it’s bloody crackers. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TTP21 Posted July 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2019 RyJ Mille Fleur. UEB JUN 17. This cigar was excellent. Wood, toasted tobacco, nougat, notes of tea. Perhaps the price point lowered my expectations, but the flavors from this guy were just well executed with hardly any harshness. Mild to Medium, perfect cigar for a walk. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRN says that these are like standing next to a bonfire of exotic woods, (or something along those lines). Perhaps it’s the suggestion, but it’s that and a lot more. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
