Which do you prefer the molinos or corona? Similarities?

I found the molinos a high quality cigar; rich leather and cream, salt and dark chocolate. But the non-plus I found harsh and unbalanced; wouldn't have been surprised to find out that it was a machine made/cheap post-machine made era hand rolled

I wondered whee the corona sat in terms of these the extremes. I've heard very good things about it.

[Smallclub]

The Molinos is the best of the bunch, the more complex. The corona can be very good but it has less typicity (the Molinos has some unique leather notes that you hardly find elsewhere, IMHO).

As for the Non Plus I've never bought a box because all the singles that I've tried (at the time it was widely available) were rather poor…

[Phillys]

Nice Molinos, and that looks like a very happy little guy. Was that the picture of when you showed him the cigars?

[ogus]

Nah he's a pipe smoker he doesn't appreciate cigars- see for yourself

Great get. The Molinos is a cigar that seems to always over deliver.

Yep that's the picture as described above. The various layers of complexity garners respect. Nice experience thanks to all.
