Aladino Maduro Corona Box Pressed Cigar - 1 Single
Date Added: Monday 07 November, 2022
An excellent cigar from Honduras! Medium to full-bodied strength. Earthy notes with a slight nuance of dried plums and/or beetroot, smoked oakwood and Borodinsky bread. No leather notes at all, which I personally find very pleasing! The smoke is smooth and rich but not creamy. The cigar burns very well, and the draw is perfect. The flavour doesn't overstay its welcome on your palate. It gets a 10/10 from me.

Great tasting cigar. Nice subtle peppery but not at all over powering, smooth and flavourful right to the end (i was sorry to see it go!). IÂ’ll be adding this to my frequent purchases.

Its a bad cigar in my opinion Very tight - hard to get a good draw !! As for flavor im getting a very bitter camel cigarette dog end type flavor -its very bitter With a bitter tang Theres no significant strength its just bitterness It also stinks its rank Ive had better quality for less theirs a couple of the £3 mark cigars on list which are way better Even Royal Dutch are better and they are approx £2.60 Even at same cost to a single hamlet I would choose the hamlet !! Disapointing.

So I am back to report on my findings further to my initial review back in September 2020 and I am happy to report that my second tasting was considerably better than my first. I can fully appreciate and understanding why this cigar is held in high esteem. The draw was superb with a slight resistance off a straight cut and it absolutely hit the ground running. It started with a deep liquorice almost gingerbread flavour which was delicious. I smoked it out in the garden with temperatures between 23-25 and it definitely performed better in these conditions. Lots of smoke, mild to medium throughout and the construction/burn was extraordinary as I didnt have to re light it at any time! Honestly it was a delight and I am so relieved considering I had bought a bunch of singles plus a box. Based on todays performance and whilst it was a 92/93 point cigar I do feel that it has more to show so I am very confident that the others I have will improve over time which is an exciting prospect. Ill be diving back in now and again especially with the Euros on the horizon.

This is a great cigar to look at and to hold, really unique. It had excellent construction, with a good draw, once you cut it open enough, a good burn and a strong ash. Flavours and strength were not as bold as I was expecting from something called a Shark, nice notes of sweet earth and cedar but no citrus as advertised, yet still I found it moreish and had to stop myself smoking this too quickly. It lasts over an hour and a half but it is still on the pricey side, even given its unique shape. One for special occasions.

I have been waiting a long time to try this cigar for a number of reasons. The story behind Carlos Fuente Jnr dedicating this cigar to his father who had sadly passed away by the time the cigar had won Cigar of the year 2017 - Cigar Afficiando. Its one of the most beautiful cigars to look at and feels even better in the hand. The shape, the texture, the construction...everything looks, feels and smells right. I had a slightly loose draw but that doesnt tend to bother me as you are able to get huge volumes of smoke out of the cigar (hypothetically leading to more flavour right?). My opening 3rd was quiet but I heard that Arturo Fuentes are a little shy and take some time to warm up in your company so I didnt want to judge too quickly. After the end of the first 3rd I was getting worried as the flavour levels hadnt changed....surely there was more to this cigar than it was showing me. Into the second 3rd.....Oh man, it hasnt changed one iota. Dont get me wrong, the burn was exquisite, the ash was beautiful, but where was the flavour!!!! Its like someone cooking you an unbelievable meal
