Henri Wintermans Tubed Coronas Deluxe Sumatra Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Wednesday 20 March, 2019 by Jaymie

If you want a cheap cigar these are fine, but if you want something decent in my opinion you need to spend a bit more. The burn was quick and hot, for the price give it a try but donÂ’t expect to much.

This cigar is quite interesting. It has a number of benefits - 1. Its dry cured so it doesnt need a humidor, though like any dry cured cigar it tastes a bit better IMO after proper humidification. 2. Its pre-cut so it can be smoked anywhere at any time. 3. Its quite a decent ring gauge and length - just shy of a petit corona. It certainly feels like a real cigar rather than a cigarillo like a half corona from Henri Wintermans. 4. It burns well and lights very easily - never had an issue with it burning in strange ways. 5. It comes in a tube despite being sold for less than a fiver, whereas its Cuban competitor Guantanamera is a good few pounds more for a tubos. The tube means it can be stored and protected anywhere. The main con - It tastes like a Henri Winterman i.e. relatively cheap, Dutch tobacco. I happen to like the flavour so its not a con for me, but if you like the flavour of Cuban or Nicaraguan tobacco and just cant stand the Dutch mix of Brazilian and Indonesian leaf it wont be for you. I think this is excellent value for a cigar and it is very useful for keeping in a car or drawer or somewhere, or anywhere you would rely on something dry cured. You get a lot of cigar for your money, but I dont think it should be compared to a real cigar e.g. a nice bundle Nicaraguan or something, it has a different niche altogether. Main competitors I know of - Guantanamera Cristales tubos Vasco da Gama (unflavoured) tubos Villiger tubos (forgot the name) Anything from De Olifant CGars own-brand of Dutch cigars And decent sized dry cured cigars like: Villiger Export (square or round) Henri Winterman Half Corona King Edward Imperial (though these are sweetened)

Easy light, even burn and nice draw. Thats it. Cheap looking nasty wrapper with tonnes of veins and knots in it. Its a cheap smoke for a reason. After one third it tasted like a damp ashtray. Full of tarry flavours and absolutely zero subtlety. I didnt get much further down it because simply put it was horrible. After I put it out I opened it up out of curiosity and I wasnt shocked. Yes its short fill tobacco but thats no excuse for it to look like left over leaves after an autumn sweep up. Considering the other smokes available for a few quid more there really isnt any other reason to buy this other than you cant get to a decent tobacconist or wait on delivery. Save your money ladies and gents as youd be better off wrapping guinea pig bedding in your fiver and smoking that than buying this monstrosity! Chris

Disappointed to say that I didn't enjoy smoking this cigar one bit. Highly inconsistent and not enjoyable. Lasted half an hour, started off very mild and I abandoned it around the two thirds mark as it had become horribly harsh. I really wanted to like it but couldn't. Burned evenly with an easy draw and a dark grey ash.

Just smoked one of these while out walking the dog and was surprised how good it was for a budget machine rolled cigar. Not exactly the best cigar but definitely worth a fiver and lasted over 40 mins for me. Will buy more. Definitely a good cigar to bulk out the humidor and a perfect smoke if you have guest and don't want to part with your Cubans. Not loads of flavour but enjoyable none the less.

This was an interesting smoke. Easy to draw, even burn all the way down and a decent taste. I got the best part of an hour out of it. All in all I rather enjoyed it. I'll certainly be buying more of these. I'm considering buying the 10 box.
