El Presidente Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 I capped it at 47 gauge to make it a little clearer. Which one of the fatty half corona brigade do you enjoy most? the latecomer "Romeo y Julieta Petit Royales" the established favourite in "H. Upmann Half corona" The smooth cocoa/cream pin up boy "Montecristo Media Corona" Which one and why? tap the poll but let us know your thoughts
dvickery Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 In nov ‘16 ... when in Havana ... every morning (in the comodoro smoke shop) I had either a media corona or half corona . hands down the monty media corona was the prettiest ... also hands down the upmann half corona was the best tasting and best burn/smoking . so I guess it depends on what you are looking for (dark oily wrapper (monty) or tasty and well balanced (upmann)) ... I voted for upmann half corona . derrek 4
Lotusguy Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Petit Royales by a long shot. Can’t access the poll on tapatalk. 3
encephalization Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Loved the Petit Royales I got from 24:24 the first time around. Everything I enjoy about the RyJs. However, having only had the chance at one box and also remembering the rather poor quality of RyJ I've experienced previously I vote HUHC. Had some late 2012 and early 2013 tins that I smoked over the past 3-4 months, they were the best value stick of 2018 for me. 1
slowsmoke Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 I voted Monte because they are tasty and have been more consistent for me. The Upmann are growing on me, but they’re more likely to be too tight or just harsh. Never tried the ryj.

nKostyan Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 All of these cigars have a strong taste and a good balance. My personal preference is Upmann, but they need have to be in only oily wrapper. If buying a closed box, I would prefer Media Coronas - any wrappers I like. 1
Fuzz Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 I have never had any luck with anything in the RyJ range. I just don't know why. As for the HUHC and MMC... that was a coin toss between the two. I enjoy them both, but the HUHC just inches past the MMC.
ErikB72 Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Love the HUHC but really digging the Quintero Petit Quintero lately

LLC Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 I haven’t had the RJ so between the Monty and the HUHC, I went with the HUHC based on consistency, flavor and value combined.
PigFish Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 ... when did 47 ring become a coronas, other than a double? You mean there is more than one? Who would have known? -LOL Give me a Partagas Tres Petit Coronas! Better than that petit Upmann by a long shot. Better than the Party Short as well! As usual, I am off the range a bit. Carry on! -the Pig 1

RijkdeGooier Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 HUHC are already good young for me. The MHC needs a bit more down time. Prefer Monte #5 over them as they are more concentrated 1
Siberian Bear Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 I love all three and have 4 boxes of each, however, 4 more boxes of RyJ PR are on the way, since it has this amplified cherry flavor that I've been looking for in many different RyJ vitolas.
anjimj Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 H.upmann corona with age is tasty. Royales are great Rott.
Jimmy_jack Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 RyJ for the win. Also, they fit inside empty HUHC tins 1
WhiteMamba Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 haven't had enough of the petit royales yet so gotta go with the huhc it was the first box of CC I ever had.
Habana Mike Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Been an HUHC fan for some time. Only ever had one box of the Monte so that's telling. first box of RyJ was fantastic. More recent a little less so.
Raskol Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Haven't had the RYJ yet. So it's between HUHC & MMC. Going for MMC cause of it's flavor
Piligrim Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 I prefer RyJ PR for myself, but HUHC have better sales. most of the people choose those.
