Quick Smoke: Joya de Nicaragua Celebracion Toro
Sunday, June 8th, 2008Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.
If you’ve been smoking cigars for a few years you’ll no doubt remember when Joya de Nicaragua ruled as the king of kick, the sultan of strength, the potentate of power. (OK, OK, I’ll stop. You get the drift.) These days, though, the jewel of Nicaragua rarely gets polished. The Celebracion is Joya’s low-end stick, with a criollo wrapper providing less power than the Antaño. The 6 inch, 50 ring gauge Toro runs between $4 and $5. I found it to be an OK smoke with some pepper and an overall medium strength. I wouldn’t want a steady diet of these, but it’s not a bad cigar to occasionally mix into your smoking lineup.
Verdict = Buy.
