Quick Smoke: La Aurora 107 Corona

Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,” “hold,” or “sell.”

Set to be officially released at the IPCPR show this week, this Corona (5.5 x 43) is a new addition to La Aurora’s recently-introduced 107 line. It features a relatively vein-free Ecuadorian wrapper around Dominican binder and Dominican and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos. Smooth medium-bodied flavors make for an interesting smoke, with leather, spice, graham, and warm woody flavors. Construction is superb, and this format is a perfect vehicle for this complex, balanced smoke.

Verdict = Buy.
