Henri Wintermans Half Corona - Pack of 5 cigars

Smokeable? Yes. Enjoyable? Meh. If you just want something basic to smoke for cheap it’ll do the job I guess. Not sure if it was just the pack that I had but 3/5 cigars in the pack left a horrible tar at the corner of my mouth, must’ve been stems or something. Tastes like an ash tray, but it ’s bearable. For a pound more I’d get the romeo y julieta puritos, much nicer smoke, they look smaller but it’s probably the same amount of tobacco since the Wintermans seem oddly hollow?

I had a Henry Wintermans given by someone at an event and quite enjoyed it...I guess it was all due to the setting. Then I have decided to buy a pack to enjoy a quick smoke at home. It was the biggest waste of money since I am buying cigars. Everything about it screams cost cutting, if feels like a pack of Walkers, mostly filled with air, it felt light and soft in hand, crushing between fingers with no effort in the second half, it burned fast, it smelled bad and the taste...oh, the taste was horrendous...a bitter unpleasant smoke with an even worse finishing. The aftertaste was a lingering unpleasant linear bitter taste with no depth whatsoever. It was by far the worst smoke Ive ever had. The Montecristo puritos are priced similarly and believe it or not they smoke as long as the half coronas of Wintermans.

Excellent service and if there is a problem sorted out straight away.

Yes Nigel - they used to have a 40 ring gauge and a Brazilian wrapper- they changed about ten years ago after the company was sold to stc

Is it my imagination but are these half caronas only about half the ring gauge they used to be 20 years ago - last time I smoked one - just saying you understand 😩
