Charatan Corona Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Saturday 31 August, 2024 by James

Smoke time: 50 minutes *Initial Draw:** Mild, aromatic, with cedar and black pepper notes. The draw is open, necessitating short, frequent puffs. - **Construction:** Decent, with the ash staying intact through the first third. - **First Third:** Pleasant but lacking complexity. - **Second Third:** Develops a noticeable acidity and acridity that detracts from the flavor. - **Final Third:** The flavors continue to deteriorate, becoming bland and losing complexity. While there is some improvement toward the end, it remains underwhelming. The cigar has some positive aspects, such as decent construction and a pleasant aroma on the initial draw. However, it also has notable downsides, particularly as it progresses into the second and final thirds. Overall, it seems like the cigar started with some promise but ultimately disappointed as it progressed.

I recently bought some of these cigars together with some Charatan Churchills. The service was really quick and the cigars arrived safely (the postman also had the sense to put the package inside a sealed plastic bag as I was not home when they were delivered and it was chucking it down). I smoked one of the Coronas the other night and it was quite simply a delightful 40 minutes. I prefer to v-cut big ring cigars and this gave an excellent draw on this cigar. While there was more than enough smoke for me it was mild enough as to be very pleasant from start to finish whereas some others cigars start well but half way through you’ve had enough when they start to become very harsh. The cigar gave a good and very even burn and held its shape for the entire time that I smoked it. Charatan cigars are one of my favourites and I will definitely be ordering more of these. Highly recommended for novice cigar smokers like me but I’d say that even more experienced smokers will find this cigar hard to fault. Order some. You won’t be disappointed both for price and quality.

A great smoke. Converting my old greenhouse into a Cigar Lounge and took a break to test & taste and loved it, even burn, great tastes and flavours. tried a Brewdog stout (Layer cake) and such a great complement to each other.

Found this cigar quite confusing...burn line, plumes of smoke, full of flavour, great size and feel...all under a tenner !!! Top draw (excuse the pun)

Not a Havana, all right - but a rich, very well made, tasty cigar. Slightly shy of the peppery quality that I like, but pleasurable, smooth on the tongue, superb value, smooth draw. A very good alternative to the most expensive cigars of the same size which, frankly, I can't afford. Great cigar for the price, and well worth a try.
