"hmmm"
This was the least impressive trinidad ever. Very little smoke and the flavor was just average. I expect more from this line of cigars.

"A Pretty Average Stoogie!"
I had a four pack of these that I received in a grab bag type deal. I wouldn't have paid the full price for these as besides being very bland, one was very harsh. If you want a reasonable mild cigar with the same construction, get a Helix. Don't pay the price they are asking for these.

"poor"
I don't think I've ever chucked a cigar as fast as this one. After paying an arm and leg for it, I expected something at least decent. This cigar has the strangest taste you will probably ever find in a cigar. I can't even describe it....it's sort of like smoking hay. If you live in a barn you might like that taste, but not for me. This is the first "1" flavor and overall rating I have ever given to a cigar.
Didn't let it burn long enough to even test the construction.

"Good"
Reviews seem to be all over the board on this cigar. I found them to be a nice tasting cigar with good construction. The price is the problem.

"Nice cigar..."
Nothing really special, but it wasn't bad at all. Not harsh, good burn, well made. Earthy, and spicy. Would never pay full price though.

"Smooth but pricey"
After lighting immediately noticed the smoothness of the smoke with a hint of nuts from the oils. The center of the smoke was a bit harsher but came back to the original smoothness. Burned uneven predominantly through the whole smoke. For the price I would have expected a little bit more.

"Better than the Robusto"
It's not a handsome cigar, rough with some veins, but construction is fine. It's not as heavy as the larger vitolas, and in this case less is more, unless being thrown to the ground by Brian Urlacher is your idea of fun. The corona experience is more like being shoved out of bounds. The same flavors predominate, though they aren't terribly expressive-- a little leather, with some pepper at first light and later on the finish. At 3 dollars this would be an acceptable short after-dinner smoke. But at 3 dollars it ain't.

"Strong, and that's about all."
Well constructed. Not a bad looking or burning cigar. Draw is very good. Taste is a bit of a letdown. Strong. Not at all complex. I guess that I was expecting more.

"Not bad, But not Bold"
Picked up a few as, JR's cigar's of the week, $4.00 a Buck per stick. This was a good over all Vitola.Nice scent on the foot, reminded me of a "LG Diez Puro". This Vitola was packed to the hilt, Firm to hold for it's size. The wrapper is smooth, with very tiny veins. The one, I sampled was of the lighter wrapper, which warmed up in oil's as it burned. The cap was chipped and the draw was tight. The hint's were of nuts, leather and the tobacco. I would really like to hear from, "Another BOTL" on this blend. But at retail $8.00, you be the judge.

"OK Looking, if veiny"
An OK looking, if veiny, cigar. Tasted lots of earth (but good, not like the usuall disgusting DR earth) and some leather. I found it to be a smooth, medium body smoke. Construction was very good as well, draw was near perfect, zero burning problems and the ash held on like a champ.

"I agree with the first guy"
The cigar is well made I'll give it that but for the price it better be. I really like a full flavored cigar but I thought this one was not that complex which is a huge let down for the price. A good smoke but won't be going back after smoking five I'm done here. If your spending the cash go for a Davidoff Gran Cru. They are what this cigar should be.

"Maybe it's just me......."
Well, with all the glowing reviews, I am a bit reluctant to add my 02 cents. Straight out, I disliked this cigar. Hard to light, harsh almost hot smoke right from the start. Went out within 1/2 inch. Once I got about 1 inch into it I caught a hint of complex flavors but it quickly returned to "burning straw". I left it less than half smoked.

"Top Notch"
A very strong potent cigar, but smooth all the way to the bottom. Very, very good after a nice big dinner.

"Can't go wrong"
One of my favorite lines. All cigars are consistently good. All have a spicy aroma that reminds me of overripe fruit, but in a good way. The Corona has a nice oily wrapper with a perfect burn and ash. Never had a bad one.

"Absolutely Amazing"
This cigar was so good I'm not sure where to start. Wrapper is just about perfect, though it could stand to be a tiny bit more oiley maybe. Cap is perfect and came off perfectly. Construction is simply amazing. I've never given anything else a 10 on here in that area, but it's hard for me to imagine better construction than this. Nice firm feel, perfect draw, and burn was perfectly even until the last 2" or so. This cigar cleanly and slowly turns into ash, which won't fall on it's own for at least the first 2". The flavor is dominated by sweetness and some unique blend of cedar, wood, and spice. I really like natural tobacco sweetness and I love complex cedar/spice flavors so its hard for flavor to get any better than this for me. The most amazing thing about this cigar, though, is that it smokes perfectly with little change in flavor for the whole length. I smoked this thing until less than an inch was left with only a slight decrease in sweetness and a somewhat woody taste toward the end. I probably could have crushed up the nub and smoked the rest of it in a pipe, which is something I can't say about any other cigar I've ever tried. This cigar is just amazing, and in my mind a major bargain for around $10. How the heck do they do it?
