Deodato Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 The recent post on favorite vitolas got me thinking about coronas. The only one I've smoked is the recent RA Extra and I loved the format. So where next from here? I'm hoping the answer isn't just Monte 3 as I've got plenty of Montes in my life already
ChanceSchmerr Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 My Favorites would be Partagas, Bolivar, Diplo 3, Hoyo Du Roi, SLR, Sancho Panza....I think that's it. Good luck finding any of those!
bassman Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Siglo IV, JLS 1 and SLR A are all great cgs But they are not Coronas. Like them strong- Bolivar & Partagas. Milder- QdeO.
Ophidion Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 But they are not Coronas. Like them strong- Bolivar & Partagas. Milder- QdeO. The Rae is 2rng away from a cg.
canadianbeaver Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Bolivar no.2; Upmann Corona if it has a couple of years on it.
PigFish Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 RA Corona, Sig III, Bolivar, Partagas, and Upmann Love lost... a lost art, the Cuban Coronas. Add the D-3, the Punch, the du Roi. They kept the Monte 3, probably the worst of them!!! Luckily they kept one of the best for now. If you are looking to purchase a great coronas, look no further than the QdO Coronas Claro. Rob probably has them. Cheers. -the Pig
Smallclub Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 The Partagas corona and Punch corona, both in cabinet of 50, were the best IMO. They're still my favorites today, but now I have them in dress boxes and quality of flavors is one degree below. Then come the Sancho Panza. I also like the VR Familiar but for some reason it's the most expensive of all…
dvickery Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 bolivar coronas...by a mile q'do coronas claro...probably the best cigar(let alone corona)under 10 years made in cuba. derrek

Lotusguy Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 My package of Boli Coronas from 2005 was stolen off my front porch - I am still sore about that Vendor ran out shortly after :tantrum: QdO Coronas are great with a few years on them

I hope the guy gets what's coming to him....
Hohenthal Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Any, and I mean ANY Corona Extra / Corona Gorda is a great cigar. Full stop.
audio1der Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 My package of Boli Coronas from 2005 was stolen off my front porch - I am still sore about that Vendor ran out shortly after :tantrum: QdO Coronas are great with a few years on them Sorry to hear that I think I know the vendor you;re referring to- I was just going to order more... My vote is for the Bolis all the way.
PigFish Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 That is just awful, man! I hope the guy gets what's coming to him.... ... I did! And they were great cigars!!! -LOL -Piggy
Lotusguy Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 ... I did! And they were great cigars!!! -LOL -Piggy It's all good, Ray - thanks for the box of RA898 that you are sending me in return
mk05 Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 Punch corona, both in cabinet of 50, were the best IMO. Just beautiful, the older guys who teach me about cigars call it the quintessential vintage Cuban cigar.
markmurase Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 Love lost... a lost art, the Cuban Coronas. Add the D-3, the Punch, the du Roi. They kept the Monte 3, probably the worst of them!!! Luckily they kept one of the best for now. If you are looking to purchase a great coronas, look no further than the QdO Coronas Claro. Rob probably has them. Cheers. -the Pig I also vote for the Quay D'Orsay Coronas. A reasonably mild smoke, but wonderful complexity.
Deodato Posted June 20, 2012 Author Posted June 20, 2012 You guys rock! I'll check out the QdO Coronas
Charltonc Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 SLR Coronas are excellent. I love all the corona gordas. I am going to have an SLR Corona for breakfast.
