Antonio Gimenez Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by christian
As this was my first ever cigar this review might be pointless but nevertheless i shall give my opinion. I actually really liked this it was very gentle on the puff and didnt make me cough at all like at all even when i accidently inhaled the cigar it wasnt bad. Overall i think this cigar is perfect for newcomers as it is easy to smoke, its cheap and it lasts a good hour if you take your time like i did. Only thing that doesnt give it a 5 was the taste was very mild but i would definitely get another in the future for a treat.

Excellent 15-20 minute smoke. This is consistently smooth throughout and is very well constructed. Definitely a great beginner smoke in that it is light and creamy with hints of spice toward the middle and not harsh at all. I will definitely be buying again!

Initial impressions - this is one very fine cigar, firm to the touch, size-proportionate at 52 RG x 5 inches and sporting an attractive mid-chocolate colour. Large and eye-catchingly simple AB band, it looked and felt good. Also, this example had been resting in the humidor for a month.
First third - mostly mild with predominant background notes of earth, wood and hay. Good draw using a clean punch cut, easily fired up using a torch lighter and pleasant aroma upon lighting with considerable smoke output. Definitely no complex flavours detected and no hint of spiciness (or harshness for that matter) on the palate but nonetheless enjoyable, particularly when paired with a Bowmore Islay malt.
Second third - little change to overall taste experience. Enjoyable if slightly underwhelming. Left a pleasant but mildly dry aftertaste in the mouth. Developed a very uneven burn line which needed correcting on a couple of occasions.
Final third - much as before. The smaller band easy to remove but larger band was problematic, refusing to budge and ultima

Surprised how bad this was, very harsh taste, very hard to draw and keep lit. Went out 3 times (smoking too quickly if anything) and gave up.

Loved this cigar.
First third I got espresso, earthy, cedar notes and through the nose a nice peppery tang.
Second third came some notes of grapefruit and aniseed along with the afore mentioned.
The final third it became really creamy/oily with small tastes of dark bitter chocolate.
Great construction and burn. Will be buying these again.
