Jaksen Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 More and more Vegas cigars are undergoing my inspection and is slowly becoming a regular item in my humidor. When reaching for an easy premium cigar, the choice is often the Famosos or the larger Double Corona – Don Aleandro… What a lovely creamy start with a waterfall of nutty notes in this 6 year old cigar. It’s like smoking a bottle of Baileys Irish Cream. Open an aged white wine, find a comfortable chair and let this fine cigar ease your worries for a couple of hours. There is milk on the draw, almond on the tongue, a light coffee/chocolate in the aftertaste and a mixture of cocoa, almond and coffee in the scent. There are moments of a heavy coffee and a pinch of pepper in moderations. This is really a relaxing medium bodied smoke with a spectacular earthy flavor spectrum. I rate it 93 from a box dated 09/2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maalouly Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 VR Don alejandro is one of my favourites, great review couldn't agree more, but it's not a Corona Grande it's a Double Corona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassman Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Nice review. I recently smoked my last 04 VRDA. Lovely flavor as you said, but my box was very under filled. A DC should last longer than 45 minutes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellery Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Thanks for the review, I've been smoking the famosos and the familiars, haven't had the DA's yet, but will def pick one up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
