Trinidad Coloniales

[mgravito]

At this point I've tried the Reyes and the Robustos T and I'm quite fond of the Trinidad profile. How do the Coloniales stack up? I'm looking for for Trinidad but longer than a Reyes and less expensive than the RoboT. Are the Coloniales worth it? I just never hear much about them.

I love the Reyes, and wondered the same thing so I bought a box blind about a month ago. I've only smoked one so far, but I loved it and it reminded me of a larger Reyes (which is what I'd hoped). If the rest of the box is as good as the first I'll be ordering more

As Ken might put it, they are the weird uncle in the attic of the marca

Very tea flavoured to me, green/jasmine. Certainly a very interesting and enjoyable smoke fi you like that profile.

But none of that creme brule profile that I would usually associate with the rest of Trinidad

I agree to pay a premium for the Reyes, but for the price of the Coloniales I will always chose a corona gorda.

Its a cuban cigar, of course its worth it...

If you like the profile then try them all. I have tried a few and enjoy the T the most, but the coloniales is still a nice (not great) cigar.

I like them a lot but find myself reaching for a Reyes most of the time when the Trinidad mood strikes me. There are even better (discontinued ) coronas out there, like the Bolivar or Punch.

I love the Coloniales. Such a treat when I get one, and miss them when I'm out.

I've never had a bad one

I have both Reyes are my favorite

Reyes is a goto for me. Colonial not so much. Also feel the 12 Reyes are heads above 07-11 at least in my experience
