Initial Light

Excellent draw with spice and black pepper notes. Solid construction

First 1/3:

Spicy flavors remain with a fresh tobacco aroma. This is a medium-bodied cigar.

Second 1/3:

Strong hickory wood flavors come to the forefront as spiciness subsides. Less complexity is present and burn remains perfectly even with a solid ash.

Final 1/3:

Hickory notes subside revealing a burnt toast flavor. This Corona pack a nice punch for its size, but could be enjoyed any time of the day. It can be enjoyed for 30-45 minutes.
