Quick Smoke: Coronado by La Flor Corona Gorda
19 Oct 2008
Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.
This huge 7 inch by 60 ring gauge stick features the same good looks as the Double Corona I reviewed well over a year ago. The taste is similar too, with full-flavored warm toffee and leather. The burn is occasionally erratic, but overall construction is not an issue. Ultimately, while not as good as the double corona—which I rated a perfect five stogies—this is still a fantastic cigar at $8, even if the girth is uncomfortably large.
Verdict = Buy.
