Quick Smoke: La Tradicion Cubana Corona Gorda

30 Oct 2010

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.”


Made under the direction of Luis Sanchez, this Corona Gorda (6 x 50) comes dressed in a Spanish cedar sleeve with a clean Ecuadorian wrapper, a Honduran binder, and a two-country filler blend from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. The cigar has a light profile of vanilla, cream, almond, and woodsy spice. With absolutely flawless combustion qualities, this is an excellent offering from La Tradicion Cubana—especially considering its $4 price tag.

Verdict = Buy.

    Yes, this is a "Buy". The churchill & torpedo get more accolades, but I like this size as much. In the maduro side of this, Sabor Cubana, I definitely prefer this size. Thanks for mentioning one of my favorites.
